    Are they brand new APs or used?

    If used, did you purge them?

    Do you have CPSEC enabled?

    How are you doing controller discovery?

    This is not really a suport forum for people to jump on to help, if they can great, but if you need something fast, I would open a TAC case. You still hadn't answered the other questions above (AP discovery, CPSec on or off, etc). My recommendation would be to open a TAC case and work with them to assist you.

     I would SSH into the controller and type "show audit-trail" to see if anything was changed between yesterday and today", so that you can perhaps get an idea what is wrong...

    thanks Colin Joseph

    now i have added 119 AP, i still have to add 31 more, i will go site later on then will double check. 

    but the problem i was experiencing the AP is too much heat, even if you touch by your hand you feel very hot.

    is there any solution to reduce heat on AP?

    thanks.

    You cannot reduce the heat on an access point, no.

    thanks Colin Joseph

     

    but it seems not normal case, it is too much heat, are you sure  we can't fine tune to reduce heat 

    thanks!!

    It's a common concern as they do get warm, the back of the AP is designed to be a heat sink (it's a very common question). However, it's well within spec. If you want to get an IR camera to shoot a picture and post it, we can tell you if it's within spec. I don't recall the temp off the top of my head at 2AM, but I can find out on Monday.
