fortios_wireless_controller_timers – Configure CAPWAP timers in Fortinet’s FortiOS and FortiGate.

New in version 2.9.

Synopsis

  • This module is able to configure a FortiGate or FortiOS (FOS) device by allowing the user to set and modify wireless_controller feature and timers category. Examples include all parameters and values need to be adjusted to datasources before usage. Tested with FOS v6.0.0
