    It means there is no Spectrum FFT support. Take a look at the 'show ap database' output for more info.

     

     

    Flags: 1 = 802.1x authenticated AP use EAP-PEAP; 1+ = 802.1x use EST; 1- = 802.1x use factory cert; 2 = Using IKE version 2
           B = Built-in AP; C = Cellular RAP; D = Dirty or no config
           E = Regulatory Domain Mismatch; F = AP failed 802.1x authentication
           G = No such group; I = Inactive; J = USB cert at AP; L = Unlicensed
           M = Mesh node
           N = Duplicate name; P = PPPoe AP; R = Remote AP; R- = Remote AP requires Auth;
           S = Standby-mode AP; U = Unprovisioned; X = Maintenance Mode
           Y = Mesh Recovery
           c = CERT-based RAP; e = Custom EST cert; f = No Spectrum FFT support
           i = Indoor; o = Outdoor; s = LACP striping; u = Custom-Cert RAP; z = Datazone AP
           p = In deep-sleep status
           4 = WiFi Uplink
           r = Power Restricted; T = Thermal ShutDown

    Hello,
    I have the same "f" flag on an AP-505 campus, with 2 7205 controllers in HA, version 8.6.x

    Where can I find more information on this "f" flag?
    How can I solve problems and know if it's a problem or not? and if it is a problem how to solve it?

    It is not a problem.  That specific access point does not support Spectrum Monitoring.
