    APs/Devices display Configuration Error

    I am trying to resolve an issue with APs/Devices not displaying configuration errors. When I try to import the configuration I receive the errors in the log below. Is this because I have managment mode to monitor and not to read/write?

    It could be that the username and password credentials are missing or incorrect.

    I added the appropriate credentials to the scan set within the tabbed area for Device Setup/Discover. Unfortunatley I still see the same results. I wonder if it has to do with my configuration being set to monitor only?

    Have audits ever been successful?  Take a single controller, try to run an audit.  From the CLI, tail -f /var/log/ap/(ap_id)/*  or more specifically, the audit.log.  This will give you more details into the interaction with the controller during the audit period.

    It sounds like you've already "discovered" the device, and it's in the database now (but not getting the configuration read) - Take a look at the credentials on the device's "management" tab.

     

    See if the credentials Airwave has for the deivce match what you have configured on the device.
