maintenance-mode
To disable AP maintenance mode:
ap system-profile <profile>
no maintenance-mode
To view the maintenance mode status of APs, use the following commands:
show ap config {ap-group <name>|ap-name <name>|essid <name>}
show ap debug system-status {ap-name <name>|bssid <name>| ip-addr <ipaddr>}
On the local controller, you can also view maintenance mode status using the following commands:
show ap active {ap-name <name>|essid <name>|ip-addr <ipaddr>}
show ap database
show ap details {ap-name <name>|bssid <name>|ip-addr <ipaddr>}
Energy Efficient Ethernet
The W-AP130 Series support the 803.az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) standard, which allows the APs to
consume less power during periods of low data activity. This setting can be enabled for provisioned APs or AP
groups through the Ethernet Link profile. If this feature is enabled for an APs group, any APs in the group that
do not support 803.az will ignore this setting.
In the WebUI
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Advanced Services> All Profiles page.
2. In the Profiles list, select AP to expand the AP profile menu.
3. Select AP Ethernet Interface Link profile. The list of existing Ethernet Link profiles appears in the Profile
Details window. Select the Ethernet link profile you want to configure to support 803.az from this list, or
create a new Ethernet link profile by entering a name for the new profile, then clicking Add.
4. The selected profile appears in the Profile Details window. The configuration parameters for the profile
are described in Table 117.
Parameter Description
Speed The speed of the Ethernet interface, either 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 1000
Mbps (1 Gbps), or auto-negotiated.

By default, AP wired port profiles reference the Default Ethernet interface link profile. If you created a new
Ethernet interface link profile to support 803.az, use the procedure below to associate a AP wired port profile
or Ethernet interface port configuration with the new Ethernet Interface link profile.
To associate a new Ethernet interface link profile with a wired port profile:
