AP not broadcasting SSID

  • 1.  AP not broadcasting SSID

    Posted Apr 24, 2018 02:07 PM

    I have an 225 series AP, controller based. It sits in an AP group along side many happy AP's, however this one fails to broadcast a specific SSID. Other than that it seems to be working fine. 

     

    Can't figure why the AP group settings aren't taking affect. Any thoughts?

     

    I don't believe there's any config required, beyond simply assigning the AP group.

    Can you validate that the SSID/Virtual AP profiles are enabled ?
    Do you have a valid VLAN assigned that existing in the controller the AP is attached to?

    How have you validated that the AP is not broadcasting the SSID from the AP Group profile?

    Only validated in AirWave using the 'Active BSSID' info from the device info.

    I had a spare AP handy, dropped it into the same AP group and it's behaving properly. I hate not finding root cause but we're going with replacement as a solution for now.

     

    Thanks
