Hello,
I have a WLC 2504 loaded with firmware 8.5 and 14 APs connected to it.
The WLC randomly reboots daily at no specific intervals.

Here's the reason why the WLC keeps reboot -- Unstable power source.

Yes, sorry it is the same WLC.
Thanks, will try to change the power adaptor.

Wut?
That is not what I said.
Investigate the power outlet the power supply is drawing power from or put the power supply behind a UPS.

The device is already behind a clean power UPS in our Server room.
There are already various device on the same DPU.

- Configure a syslog server, to send logs too, follow up on operational logs being reported during (still) normal times , sometimes indicators can be found as to why the device reboots in the end or after a while.

A hardware fault could also show as "Power on reset" so you might find you need to replace the hardware.
Rarely even a software fault could show that.
You AireOS version is very old - consider upgrade depending on whether your APs are supported.
