AP profiles

When you cannot re-assign or change AP profiles as described in 0644640 and 0644875 in the Known Issues section of the release notes, use the following workaround.

Workaround:

  1. In SD-WAN Orchestrator MEA, edit the profile and toggle off Switch/AP Configuration, and install the configuration to the device.

    SD-WAN Orchestrator MEA synchronizes the configuration to FortiGate with a default AP profile in which SSID is empty.

  2. In FortiManager, install the policy package changes to the device, and ensure that the status is Synchronized.
  3. In SD-WAN Orchestrator MEA, open the AP profile for editing to find the name of the profile in FortiManager (for example, swnc-1), and then click Cancel to close the profile without saving any changes.
  4. In FortiManager > AP Manager, open the profile for editing, and change every radio mode from access point to disabled.
  5. In SD-WAN Orchestrator MEA, edit the profile and toggle on Switch/AP Configuration, and wait for SD-WAN Orchestrator MEA to discover and bind the AP.
  6. In FortiManager > AP Manager, open the profile for editing, and change every radio mode from disabled to access point
  7. In SD-WAN Orchestrator MEA, click the sync button.
