    Posted Nov 13, 2015 05:44 AM

    Hi,

     Aruba OS 6.4, Controller 7030 and AP's 205, 215..

     

    I know that is several ways to shut AP's ( in a VAP, Poe shutdown, create an AP group with Radios OFF) but is there anyway to shut just one AP ?

     

    Regards

    Create a radio profile on the a band and the g band that has radios off.  Apply it to an AP specific profile:

     

    config t
    ap-name "Kitchen-225"
      dot11a-radio-profile "shutdown"
     dot11g-radio-profile "shutdown"

    Hi cjoseph

     

    I see this

     

    config t
    rf dot11a-radio-profile test
    no radio enable
    exit
    rf dot11g-radio-profile test
    no radio enable
    exit
    ap-group no-radio
    dot11a-radio-profile test
    dot11g-radio-profile test

     

    Can I create that profile under webgui?

     

    regards

     Go to Configuration> Wireless> AP Configuration> AP Specific.  Select your AP, Click on your AP, Expand Wireless LAN> Click on 802.11a radio and create a NEW Radio Profile with the radios off...

     

    Delete the AP-specific configuration to remove the specific config and allow the ap-group configuration to take over.

    What is the 8.x way to do this? I want to temporarily shutdown the radios of a specific AP, without moving AP groups, etc.

    AP-specific is only available on the commandline in 8.x

     

    cd /md/<path to your config>

    config t

    ap-name <name of ap>

    dot11a-radio-profile rp-scan-a
