  • 1.  finding new controller

    Posted Aug 10, 2018 09:44 AM

    Hello Gents,

     

    I just came back from an event with many APs and 2 Controllers clustered. Now, I need some of the APs for a another event with different controllers. Problem is, the APs have the IP from the old controllers and therefor, can't connect to the new ones.

    Is there a autoreset if they cant reach their previous controller or can i hard reset them somehow? Cant find a reset button on the AP275.

     

    Just to make sure: i can ping the AP from my controller, even though they are in seperatenetworks.

     

    Thanks your your help,

    Raffa

    The below document shows you where the reset button is located and how to reset the AP.

    You should use a controller discovery mechanism in order for the AP to locate the controller.
