Does an AP reboot if you change the WLANs in an AP Group?

Level 1

When you create an AP Group and then assign an access point to that AP Group, you have to reboot the AP.

What if you edit an AP Group?  Do the APs automatically reboot, or do you need to do it manually or even better, not at all?

I can't see to find a link/doc to that information... would love to have a link.

Thanks in advance.

It does not appear to reboot when you edit the group.  I've added and edited a new WLAN to one of my groups and the AP's have not rebooted.

If i remember it correclty AP reboots only if there is a change to its 'AP mode' , 'AP Group' or 'HREAP Group'.

I think the radios reset when you edit the WLANs under the AP group

Whenever you add a new WLAN to an AP group, radio reset occurs and if any client is in connected
state, the client is deauthenticated and is required to reconnect. We recommend that you add or modify
the WLAN configuration of an AP group only during maintenance windows to avoid outages

 

The AP has to be reloaded if the AP has to be moved from one AP group to another AP group
