CloudWLC / guided migration
Move your network
one clear step at a time.
Create an account, prepare a private server, collect your cnMaestro export, and review every change before anything can affect an access point.

ACCOUNT SECURITY
Two-factor authentication
Protect controller and migration changes with an authenticator code.
Add this setup key to your authenticator app, then enter its current six-digit code.
Each code works once. They will not be shown again.
Active sessions
Review signed-in browsers and revoke access you no longer recognise.
ORGANISATION ACCESS
Members & invitations
Manage who can access this organisation. Sensitive changes require a recent two-factor check.
Your two-factor check has expired. Verify again to continue managing members or support access.
SUPPORT ACCESS
Temporary support access
Give CloudWLC support a short, read-only window to diagnose this organisation. Owner approval and a fresh two-factor check are required for changes.
YOUR SERVERS
Choose a server
Each server keeps its deployment, export, and review state separate.

HOSPITALITY DAY 0
Plan your controller estate
Turn a complete collector export into a reviewed, approved controller deployment. No controller is deployed until every site and workspace is confirmed.

- 3ApprovalNot approved
- 4DeploymentNot started
Once the collector reports every site, AP, cnMatrix switch, and the excluded WISP inventory, CloudWLC can recommend the controller split.
Review site assignments
Keep each hotel together or move a site to another recommended controller before approval.
Verify your password and authenticator before approving this controller plan.
Allocate controller workspaces
Choose one distinct CloudWLC workspace for each controller.
INDEPENDENT CONTROLLER / EARLY ACCESS
Hospitality network manager
Model sites, assign access points and WLANs, and prepare radio changes. Production actions use the organisation’s controller API; loopback development remains a browser-only demo.
Sign in to load this organisation’s controller estate. Loopback development uses an explicit browser-only demo.
DEVICES / ALL SITES
Access point inventory
Choose an unassigned AP, review its identity and destination site, then explicitly adopt it.

CONFIGURATION
WLANs
Create a reusable WLAN and assign it to whole hotel sites.
RF MANAGEMENT
Channels and power
Review the observed plan and queue explicit per-AP settings. Automatic optimisation is not connected yet.

CONTROL PLANE READBACK
Configuration jobs
Every job reports queued, delivered, acknowledged, verified or failed. Only verified means AP readback matches the reviewed settings.
MIGRATION JOURNEY
Your server
Choose a step below to get started.
- 1
Get the Chrome extension
Download the read-only collector and add it to Chrome. No controller is created yet.
Download extensionReady to downloadWhat the extension can read
It reads Wi-Fi profiles and AP groups from the active Cambium cloud tab. It does not read tokens or make network changes.
- 2
Log in to Cambium
Open Cambium cloud in Chrome and sign in to the account you want to collect.
Open Cambium cloud Use your normal Cambium sign-in - 3
Collect and send
Sign into the extension with CloudWLC, choose this workspace, then collect the Cambium estate. A one-time connection code remains available as a fallback.
Waiting to connectPaste this code into the extension once. Keep this page open while it sends the export.
Export received—Collection safety
Review and redact the local bundle before sharing. Raw configuration is only held for this migration session.

Review and prepare your controller
CloudWLC uses the collected estate to check capacity and recommend the server split before reserving compute.

Why this is gated
Switching requires a verified import, an exact AP scope, and a reviewed destination preview. The workspace fails closed and makes no AP writes.
