2594 WLC command disabled

When I issue the capwap ap hostname <name> command I get the error message  ERROR!!! Command is disabled.

Why?  I haven't changed default privilege levels.

Thank you.

The reason is because the ap has joined a WLC already.  If you want to be able to use the command, you need to either delete the image from flash and just leave the rcv image or delete the private config from flash.

ERROR!!! Command is disabled

First, check the flash:
lap_1131#dir
Directory of flash:/

2 -rwx 279 May 09 2008 11:52:20 +00:00 env_vars
4 -rwx 6168 May 09 2008 11:52:20 +00:00 private-multiple-fs
6 drwx 256 May 09 2008 11:49:05 +00:00 c1130-k9w8-mx.124-3g.JA2
5 drwx 128 Mar 01 2002 00:03:43 +00:00 c1130-rcvk9w8-mx

15998976 bytes total (10716672 bytes free)


Then delete the LWAPP image:
lap_1131#delete /r /f flash:/c11310-k9w8-mx.124-3g.JA2

Not the one the has rcv in it!!!!!!


Thirdly reload the AP:
lap_1131#reload

Then issue a clear lwapp private-config

You'll end up with a clear AP.

Option 2 - If there in no rcv image

delete /r /f flash:private-multiple-fs

Could be due to Cisco Bug ID:  CSCtl96208

 

Workaround listed is to configure the hostname via the WLC.

 

Thank you!
