I have the setup where a branch has only one access point 93 in RAP. For some reason the AP chose to go on the same channel that all the other SSID’s are around :

The ARM profile has client aware enabled thus the reason to not move from the channel BUT after reboot and moving the AP to another group and moving it back we would still get the AP on the channel 6.
Is there a way to make the arm rescan without any modification to the group or AP specific config?!
This might help - here is the rf-summary :
