Model: OC200   OC300  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

 

Description:

As a high-density Omada user (300+ devices, 10 APs, complex Matter/Thread ecosystem), I am requesting the ability to generate a full, unencrypted configuration dump of the entire site.

The Limitation of the Current GUI:

While the Omada GUI is user-friendly, it is inherently a limited abstraction layer. It does not display the full complexity of the underlying configuration (specifically regarding low-level multicast handling, ARP table timeouts, and SFP+ physical layer negotiations). For users utilizing AI-driven analysis tools to maintain 24/7 smart home stability, the GUI view is insufficient.

The Request:

I am requesting a feature—available via both the GUI and the SSH/CLI—that allows the owner to "dump" the site's complete configuration into a standardized, machine-readable format (e.g., JSON or structured text).

Key Requirements:

1. Full Logic Exposure: The dump must include the granular logic not visible in the GUI (e.g., advanced Spanning Tree parameters, IGMP Snooping timers, and detailed radio calibration logs).

2. CLI Accessibility: Provide a specific CLI command (e.g., export-config --json) that outputs the entire site configuration to the terminal for easy copy-pasting into diagnostic tools.

3. Owner-Authorized Decryption: Allow owners to export their existing .cfg backup in an unencrypted format by providing the controller's master password at the time of export.

The Rationale:

I own the hardware and the data it generates. As the network architect for my home, I require the ability to bridge my Omada environment with AI diagnostic platforms. Allowing owners to "see under the hood" via a CLI or JSON dump is the only way to effectively optimize a modern, high-density Matter and Thread environment.

Hello, thank you for posting on the TP-Link community. We appreciate all your feedback and feature requests here. While we don't have any specific details to share regarding whether the feature can be implemented across all controllers or when it might be, I'll ensure that I log this feature request and pass it along to the team.
Feel free to let us know of any other feature requests you may have; we’d be happy to send them up for you.
