Renaming an AP
You can display the status of APs in your database by executing the show ap database long command. The output
will flag an AP that has a duplicate name (N flag).
To clear the AP with the duplicate name (assuming it is no longer connected to your network), use the command
clear gap-db wired-mac.
Using the WebUI
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Wireless> AP Installation page. A list of discovered APs are on this page.
2. Select the AP you want to rename, and click Provision.
3. On the Provisioning page, scroll to the AP list at the bottom of the page and find the AP you want to rename.
4. In the AP Name field, enter the new unique name for the AP.
5. Click Apply and Reboot.
Using the CLI
Execute the following command (from enable mode) only on a master controller. Executing the command causes the
AP to automatically reboot.
ap-rename {ap-name <name>|serial-num <number>|wired-mac <macaddr>} <new-name>
If an AP is recognized by the controller but is powered off or not connected to the network or controller when you
execute the command, the request is queued until the AP is powered back on or reconnected.
