User-table inconsistencies

    Hi,

     

    Can someone explain why on some controllers when I issue the command "show user-table internal", I see a long list of devices, which are the campus AP's that are connected to that controller.

     

    Yet, on other controllers, the same command shows nothing,  yet the controller code is the same, and as far as I can see, the config is the same.

     

    Here is an example

     

    (usbinwc1) #show user-table internal

    That is because show user-table internal is an internal construct and used to troubleshoot engineering issues.  The output will be different depending on the controller you run it on...
