Session Timeout on Mobility Express 8.8

[cam0001]

Hello, 

I have an AP Aironet 1832i with Mobility Express 8.8 installed, and I can't seem to find the following:

- Session Timeout (https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/8-8/config-guide/b_cg88/wlan_timeouts.html). It mentions I need to go to "WLANs > Edit > Advanced", but the "Enable Session Timeout" option is not there.

- "Client Exclusion Value" (Not found).

- "Client User Idle Timeout" (Not found).

I know this might be available to configure through the CLI, but I am not too familiar with it.

Shouldn't this be in the GUI Version?

Thanks!

The answer would be, yes, it should be available in the GUI if it is supported. If you are able to configure this from the cli, then you know it’s a possible bug on the code. You can either review the configuration guide on other code version to see if that feature is available or you can open a TAC case and see what they say.

Here is the configuration guide for Mobility Express. The link you posted is not for Mobility Express but for AireOS WLC.

Thanks Scott for the reply and the corrected guide. I would think these options should be available in ME on this model, because these are the ones I am missing on my WLANs to comply with the Best Practices review (also in the GUI).

I enabled Expert move on ME but still can't find them. I'll keep looking..

The best practice is default among all the different platforms, but does not mean it’s available. That being said, the guide doesn’t have the commands so it wouldn’t be available. Cisco should remove features in the best practice if it’s not available because it can be confusing.
