Outdoor AP RF profile changes?

Im going to have an MR76 to be deployed indoor given the characteristics of the site for a customer. Is there a way to override the outdoor RF profile, or change it to indoor to use all the indoor channels?

You can create a new RF profile and replace the default one, but I don't know if it will work the way you want.

Already created new RF profile, even after applying it does not let me change to othe channel indoor other than the ones we can use indoor and outdoor. Meaning cannot use channels from UNII1 or UNII2

It definitely can be done; I had it done when testing an external AP indoors that didn't work with the outdoor profile, but I am not sure if it can be done outside testing for an issue.  It would be good to know if it can, so please post what you get!

As I said, I believe it will not work for regulatory reasons (your regulatory domain).

You can open a support case so they can enable that use case in your network.  But then you are responsible to set properly which MR76s are indoor and which ones are outdoor.  By default dashboard assumes that all of the outdoor access points are installed in outdoors.

OK, noted on that. Many thanks
