   T37 - Section 8.1 - If the WTP opts to save the configuration locally
- how is this 
   option selected? Is this a local WTP configurations issue?
   If so please specify

There are a couple of ways of dealing with this one:
1. The simplest way of dealing with this would be to make this an

messages, etc.

decides to behave, I would prefer we go with option one and minimize the
changes to the spec at this point. Therefore, my proposed text is:

   The CAPWAP protocol provides flexibility in how WTP configuration is
   managed.  A WTP can behave in one of two ways, which is
   implementation specific:
