  • 1.  Move a client from one AP to another AP manually

    Posted Apr 06, 2020 07:16 AM

    I have a two Access Points connected to a Controller(8.5.0.1) which is managed by a Virtual Mobility Master. I need to move the client connected to one access point to the other AP using a RSSI value. I have tried using the command arm move-sta <client-mac> <newbssid> . But the client doesnot move to the new BSSID.

    Check to make sure the target bssid appears in the client's beacon report:  https://www.arubanetworks.com/techdocs/ArubaOS_86_Web_Help/Content/arubaos-solutions/1cli-commands/sh-ap-vir-beac.htm?Highlight=virtual-beacon-report

    Will I get output for this command only when a client is connected?

     

    When I execute the command I get this output(Image attached).Now there is no client associated to the AP.

     

    Kindly help me with this.

    You should run that command with the client mac address on the MD.
