Description

AP's Deleted from Topology Keep Reappearing

Scope
Versions: Network Sentry 7.3.x and 8
Solution

Versions: Network Sentry 7.3.x and 8


Issue: Access Points whose contact status is "Lost" reappear after deleting from Topology.

If the Access Point still resides in the tables of any of the modeled controllers, the Access Point will be re-added to Topology after a L2 poll.


Workaround:  Remove the Access Point entry from the controller itself.  Once removed, delete the Access Point model from Topology in Network Sentry.


Solution:  Address the controller exhibiting the behavior.
