Use the access command to modify the registration status of Wireless APs on the system. The access command is accessible from the ap context of the CLI.
If rehoming is enabled, the command to change a local AP to a Foreign AP is:
access ap_serial foreignThe command to change a foreign AP to a Local AP is:
access ap_serial approved| ap_serial | The serial number of the Wireless AP. |
| release | pending | approved | reboot | foreign | The administrative options for the Wireless AP. |
| bg-scan | Initiates a background scan for the specified radios and APs. To verify channel assignments and review channel details without having to run a full ACS, run an on-demand background scan. For more information, see the User Guide. |
| camera-reboot | Reboots the camera on the AP3916ic. |
| camera-reset | Resets the camera to factory default on the AP3916ic. |
Rehoming is enabled if availability is enabled between two controllers. Both controllers need to be in the same regulatory domain. APs in WDS/MESH configurations cannot be rehomed. APs in load groups will be removed from the load group if they are rehomed.
Background scan extends the usefulness of the Automatic Channel Scan (ACS) feature. It is a reporting tool that helps you verify and understand channel assignments. Where ACS will disrupt service and result in a persistent channel assignment, the on-demand background scan runs without disrupting service. To verify channel assignments and review channel details without having to run a full ACS, run an on-demand background scan.
The background scan does not change channel assignments, it simply provides details about the current assignments. Run background scan on each radio separately. To change channel assignments, you must run ACS.
Camera commands are for AP3916ic only.
The following example modifies the status of a Wireless AP to pending:
EWC.extremenetworks.com:ap# access 0409920201204003 pending
The following example reboots the Wireless AP:
EWC.extremenetworks.com:ap# access 0500008043050355 reboot Rebooting selected AP may result in a localized service interruption. Are you sure you want to continue(yes/no)? (yes/no):yes
The following example runs a background scan on radio 1, for two APs:
