Cisco AP

mehmet.dulger

My question is, we support end user on in-house network infrastructure.

There can be more than one AP in the same department in the company. It can sometimes be important to which AP the user computers are connected to.
Is there a command we can type and run from the computer the AP is connected to? or program?

I would appreciate if you could help with this, thank you.

Wireless clients themselves make the final decision to which AP they want to join.  
Intel wireless NICs, for instance, have a feature called Roaming Aggressiveness.

And some wireless drivers allow you to configure/restrict the BSSID MAC address of the AP the client should connect to - but that's not very common and not recommended at all. 

Rather design your network so that clients can connect to the required services regardless of which AP they connect to.  If you must segregate things by AP then make sure you have different SSIDs for different services and the APs are in different AP groups for those SSIDs then users will only connect to the SSID they use and that will only be available on the APs you have provisioned in that AP group.
