Hi all dear community, how to generate Access Points uptime & availability monthly report on WLC 9800-80 version 17.3.4c.

i do not believe WLC alone can generate this report :

options

1. If you have DNAC you can generate report

2. from GUI you can view and export to Excel ( CSV)

3. if you have python program access, you can login to WLC issue  - and generate report

#show ap uptime

4. I have not tried, you can setup a EEM script to send email monthly using above command.

5. other option you can also redirect output to outside source as exmaple :

#show ap uptime | redirect ?

Not possible to generate a pre-canned report direct from WLC.

This better suited to do with other tools like DNAC, or free network monitoring software like Cacti (https://www.cacti.net/)

As others have said there are commands to get the data from the WLC, but needs to be done manually or via creating custom scripts to login and run them for you.
