  Configuration
  
**Procedure**
  Access controller through Web Browser "https://<IP_ADDRESS>:5825"

  Click on Tech Support button on bottom right of web page
  Select All Radio Button
  Select No Stats Radio Button
  Select Generate New Tech Support File Button
  Select OK button after reading warning in new pop up window
  Select Close button when the process is done
  Select Download Last Tech Support File Button
  This will push a file onto your computer
  
If you find that the file is too large or it is taking too long, you can choose to generate the tech support on Log or Controller.  Generally, the Log option is the next best to select, because it will capture the complete log messages on the controller.  Selecting AP or Controller will only capture the logMessages.log file which rolls over quickly.  Below is a picture showing the files contained in each Tech Support option.
