Controller Based WLANs

Environment         This applies to all Aruba controllers running version AOS 6.3 and above.

Prior to AOS 6.3 once the controller was rebooted we cannot see the audit-trail history. The entries would be flushed out.

From AOS 6.3 even after rebooting the controller, we can see the previous run commands(though limited in count).

The below output was run on a 3600 series controller running AOS 6.4.1.0.
