Schedule reboot of a specific AP

Hello everyone.

 

I have been searching for a while but with no findings i will try to ask myself, is it possible to schedule a reboot of a single Access Point that is connected to a WLC?

The only thing that i find is to reset all AP's with the comand reset-aps.

Does anyone knows if it is possible?

 

Thanks for the help!

to immediately reset an AP you can use

 

config ap reset <ap>

If you want to schedule a reboot at a specific, you could use a scheduled task on PI, write a small script to reset the AP by cron/SNMP or use EEM on the switch to shutdown/no shutdown the port of the AP at a specific time.

Can do this 2 ways:

Prime Infrastructure Scheduled task

Script to run the command via the WLC CLI

Could you please help us know how we can schedule through prime infrastructure.

 

and also the script if we have to reboot multiple ap's.

I have Prime 3.7 and a Cisco 5520 WLC and I want create a template to push a config to all the AP's at a certain day and time how do I do this?

Create a template with your configuration change, then under Configuration -> Templates -> Scheduled Configuration Task you can configure a deployment schedule for this template.

Thank You

Remote into the AP and issue the command "reload AT <TIME>".
WARNING: WLC firmware 8.8.111.0 has a bug with the "reload at" and/or "reload in". When the command is used, the AP will reboot immediately (refer to CSCvk55805).
