Usage Guidelines
This command displays details for all active APs on the controller. If an AP on your network does not appear in
this table, it may have been classified as an inactive AP for any of the following reasons:
z The AP is configured with a missing or incorrect VLAN. (For example, the AP is configured to use a tunneled
SSID of VLAN 2 but the controller doesn't have a VLAN 2.)
z The AP has an unknown AP group.
z The AP has a duplicate AP name.
z An AP with an external antenna is not provisioned with external antenna gain settings.
z Both radios on the AP are disabled.
z No virtual APs are defined on the AP.
z The AP has profile errors. Issue the command `show profile errors” for details.
z The GRE tunnel between the AP and the controller was blocked by a firewall after the AP became active.
z The AP is temporarily down while it is upgrading its software. The AP will become active again after
upgrading.
