Can you clone an AP group?

Can you rename an AP group?

Thanks!

You cannot rename an ap group.  You can clone it, however.

config t

ap-group <new name>

clone <old name>

Thanks for the quick responses guys!

AP-Renaming - X

Cloning....

How do you clone an AP Group via CLI on the MM at the hierarchial scale of lets say

/md

/md/Super-Corp (AP Group resides here)

If I go to the MCs themselves I can see the ap-groups

logon switch x

show ap-group

cd /md/Super-Corp

config t

ap-group <new group>

clone <existing group>

write mem - pushes config to mds

Or if you are askign to clone it from  /md/Super-Corp to /md; that is not possible.

Thanks that did the trick! 

I was thrown off by the fact I cant see the running config of the specific group even if you change the directory to the group

cd /md/Super-Corp

show ap-group - not allowed command.

show run - shows same running config as MM

show run | inc ap-group 

default ap groups shown.

Hi

You should use the command:

show configuration effective

that will show the configuration from that level

"Submit As" which I think should be a clone, does nto seem to be working for me.

Through CLI however the clone options still works flawless (ie. ap-group <new-group> clone <old-group>) so that is what I've been using.

Renaming pretty much anything is not possible with Aruba controllers. AP-group cannot be renamed.

Remember that if you're using cloning to try and rename an ap-group, this will not change for your AP's so you will have to move them into the new group which requires the AP to reboot.
