AOS 6.3.1.6 - Mesh Role missing from AP Installation page?

    Posted Feb 09, 2015 11:31 AM

    Am I crazy, or did the mesh-role drop down list dissappear from the bottom of the AP Installation page in some recent AOS code version?   This is on AOS 6.3.1.6

     

    Doesn't matter whether I am trying to provision an AP65/105/125 from any controller in a master/local enviroment, when I try provision an AP, there is no mesh-role drop down option to select the mesh role anymore like I am used to in previous AOS.  Still can use the mesh-role commands from the CLI no problem, I am just curious if anyone else is experiencing similiar behavior?

     

    Thanks.

    It is a known issue and fixed in later versions of 6.3.1.X

    If you need to provision a mesh device, you will probably have to do it on the commandline if you stay on 6.3.1.6;

     

    provision-ap copy-provisioning-params ap-name "Office-135"
    provision-ap installation default
    provision-ap no external-antenna
    provision-ap server-name aruba-master
    provision-ap ap-group "default"
    provision-ap ap-name "Office-135"
    provision-ap no syslocation
    provision-ap mesh-role mesh-portal
    provision-ap no remote-ap
    provision-ap reprovision ap-name "Office-135

    Thanks, that makes sense. I looked in the 6.3.1.15 release notes but did not see anything.
