WLC 9800 AP 9130 LED and Flash settings not stable after Reboot

[Gehrig_W]

Hello Cisco WLAN experts,

this big hospitals deployed Cisco 9130 WLAN APs also in rooms for patient and call-on-duty rooms for doctors and nurses.

To not disturb the night silence by green or mostly blue LED of WLAN APs, we disabled LED- and Flash-state:

But unfortunately, after a Power-loss or Reboot of the WLAN AP, these settings return to factory default apparently and LED is active again:

Another point I found is that after disabling LED state only, the LED starts disco-mode blinking:

Is this normal procedure or a bug on a 9880-80-WLC running 17.9.3-code ?

Please check

Kind regards

Additionally, the Flash State Enabled feature means that you make the flash to blink always. This is to locate the AP so the behaviour you see is expected, even with the LED status disabled.

Hello JPavonM,

but normal expectation of mine would be that after I disable the LED, it is disabled totally.

It makes no sense to me, that the LED changges from solid state into bliniking permantently in that case.

Disabled means disabled for me.

In 17.9.4 CSCwf09259 is not resolved in this setup "9800-80 (HA) /9120 + 2802 running 17.9.4.27"

When reset AP switchport with LED state: disabled it comes up with LED state: enabled

@Kasper Roholt  Then you should raise a TAC  case,
