AP-207 possible license issue / Random AP reboots

    Primary Controller:

    512 Access Points Licenses

    51 RF Protect Licenses

     

    Secondary Controller: 

    512 Access Points Licenses

    89 RF Protect Licenses

     

    I am currently experiencing random AP reboots in a deployment of around 350 AP-207s. It will vary from 8 showing down, all the way to 40. Should only 140 APs be working at a time since that is the limit of our RF Protect licenses?

    Also, would be it possible to disable these RF Protect services on certain APs or entirely to restore services?

    If you don't have centralized licensing enabled, you will be limited to 51 on the first controller and 89 on the second controller.  If you have centralized licensing enabled, you would be limited to a total of 51+89

    Thanks so much for the quick reply. 

     

    Is it possible to disable these services on either select APs, or entirely to resolve the outage so we aren't stuck until more licenses can be purchased? Or is there any option for temporary licenses?

    You cannot disable on select APs.  I would type "show license" on each controller and copy the output somewhere.  Then type "license del <RF protect license key>" on both controllers then reboot.
