Shuts down a WLAN. The shutdown mechanism helps regulate the availability of a WLAN based on an administrator defined access period. Use this feature to shut down a WLAN on specific days and hours and restrict periods when the WLAN traffic is either not desired or cannot be properly administrated. The normal practice is to shut down WLANs when there are no users on the network, such as after hours, weekends or holidays. This allows administrators more time to manage mission critical tasks since the WLAN's availability is automated.

|
shutdown |
Shuts down the WLAN when specified events occur. Disabled by default. |
| on-critical-resource <CR-NAME> | Optional. Shuts down the WLAN when critical resource failure occurs.
Disabled by default.
|
|
on-meshpoint-loss |
Optional. Shuts down the WLAN when the root meshpoint link fails (is unreachable). Disabled by default. |
|
on-primary-port-link-loss |
Optional. Shuts down the WLAN when a device losses its primary Ethernet port (ge1/up1) link. Disabled by default. |
|
on-unadoption |
Optional. Shuts down the WLAN when an adopted device becomes unadopted. Disabled by default. |
If the shutdown on-meshpoint-loss feature is enabled, the WLAN status changes only if the meshpoint and the WLAN are mapped to the same VLAN. If the meshpoint is mapped to VLAN 1 and the WLAN is mapped to VLAN 2, then the WLAN status does not change on loss of the meshpoint.

| no (wlan-config-mode) | Disables auto shut down WLAN. Use the optional keywords provided to disable auto shut down of the WLAN upon critical resource failure, when meshpoint links fail, when the primary Ethernet port (e1/up1) loses link, or when the WLAN gets unadopted. |
