cli configured but web int says "zerodayconfig" (WLC 9800)

[shawncromer]

Hi.  I have a 9800 WLC that has been configured via CLI. However, when I access the device via web interface it starts off with the "zerodayconfig" as if it is right out of the box. There doesn't seem to be anywhere that I can bypass this and I'm wondering what i did wrong.  Are there any "common" issues/solutions for this?

To disable the Day-0 wizard, simply configure a country code via the CLI and then save the configuration to disable the Day-0 wizard from showing up in the HTTPS sessions afterward. To set the country code, we must first disable the wireless radios globally, and then re-enable them after the country code has been set.

Adjust the country code (“SE”) to match your regulatory domain, use the “tab” key to see what is available. Depending on your IOS-XE software version, all radios might need to be shut down to update the regulatory domain. The commands that do this will ask you to confirm that you are, to which you have to answer “y”, meaning “yes”.
