[yong khang NG]

Hi All

Running on code 8.3.112.0, problem statement is client connecting to the AP not according to the AP group. Well, whatever residing in default group superseding.

Anyway i can remove the WLAN xxx from AP default group?

Thanks

Hi there,

WLANs with IDs in the range 1-16 will automatically be assigned to the default group. Assign a WLAN with an ID higher than 16 to 'remove' it from the default group.

cheers,

Seb.

Best to do it in CLI

config wlan apgroup interface-mapping delete group_name wlan_id command.

huh? that command is for removing an AP group interface mapping, not removing an AP from the default group. The default group is automatically created and modified.

From the same reference page:

Note

The controller creates a default access point group and automatically populates it with the first 16 WLANs (WLANs with IDs 1 through 16, or fewer if 16 WLANs are not configured). This default group cannot be modified (you cannot add WLANs to it nor delete WLANs from it). It is dynamically updated whenever the first 16 WLANs are added or deleted. If an access point does not belong to an access point group, it is assigned to the default group and uses the WLANs in that group. If an access point joins the controller with an undefined access point group name, the access point keeps its group name but uses the WLANs in the default-group access point group.

cheers,

@yong khang NG Please note this, I missed this point.

Like @Seb Rupik said you cannot delete the default group.

If you don't want APs in the default group then put them in any other AP group.
