Mobility Express controller have no AP function.

[msompong1]

Hi All,

I've convert the CAPWAP AP to Mobility Express AP (Cisco 1850 , Firmware 8.10.122.0)everything look good but once I've connect to Web GUI , I'm not see the default AP (as I know the ME can work both AP and WLC). So how can I enable the AP function in the ME?

Once an AP is converted to ME, you cannot turn off the AP entity, so there isn't any functionality you need to enable.

The AP entity needs to have an IP Address, it will get one from the subnet used for the ME subnet management. So make sure you have a DHCP server on that subnet or set a manual IP address to the AP you can do that with the following commands: 

log in to WLC 

apciscoshell

log in to the AP entity 

capwap ap ip <ip address> <nw mask> <gateway info>

It's working after config the AP IP address, Thank you so much.
