WiFi Solution SPK Report Installation Changes

Starting with SevOne NMS version 7.1.0, WiFi Solution SPK (OOTB and TopN) package installation is fully automated for both new deployments and upgrade scenarios. Version 7.1.0 introduced a plugin-based architecture that automates .spk file installation. As a result, no manual installation is required for version 7.1.0 and later.

For SevOne NMS version 7.0.0 and earlier, installation is not automated. You must manually install the WiFi reports for both new deployments and upgraded environments.

When upgrading from version 7.0.x to version 7.1.0 or later, you must manually install the .spk files as a one-time activity. Follow the steps in the procedure below.
- WifiSolution Alerts
```
SevOne-import --allow-overwrite --file WifiSolution-ootb-alerts.spk
```
- WifiSolution TopN Reports
```
SevOne-import --allow-overwrite --file WifiSolution-TopN-reports.spk
```
