How to disable AP225 eth1 port ?

  • 1.  How to disable AP225 eth1 port ?

    Posted Jul 07, 2018 06:04 PM

    Hello everyone,

    Is there a way to disable Eth1 port of the AP225 ?

    I tried to change the Ethernet Interface 1 port configuration to shutdown in the ap group configuration, but the interface remains up.

    Could you guys help me with this case?

    Regards

    Thiago

    The only real way to shut down an AP225 eth1 port is to not plug it in AFAIK.  Making a port "shut" in the configuration closes it off to user traffic, and not infrastructure functions like redundancy.

    Hi

    If it is a demand from the customer to have it connected maybe you can switch it off on the switch side?

    Hello, 

    Thanks for the answers,

    I dont know why, but the customer want to have the 2 ports plugged , but dont want to configure a lacp or shutdown the the port on the switch side.

    I explained to him, if we disable it on the controller side, if the first port failure, the AP will be disconnected from the network and it will not work as a redundancy.

    My doubt is, configuring the shutdown profile in the interface ethernet1 for the ap group will disable this port ? Or this configuration just work for aps like 205h ?

    It will not disable the port for AP redundancy
