AP Management

This page displays the AP details. The AP name, MAC address, serial number, timestamp, site, firmware version, license expiry date, state (Active (identification of packets received in the last 24 hours) or Inactive (no identification of packets received in the last 24 hours)), AP radio details (Tx power and MAC address) and Actions are displayed.

If FortiPresence VM does not receive the Identification (ID) packets for any of the planned APs in the discovered AP list for more than 24 hours, a notification is sent to the FortiPresence VM registered email address of the account containing the list of such AP/APs which are in inactive state. The email notification is sent once every day until all planned APs return to active state.

Notes:

  • You must configure SMTP server in Configuration > Server Settings > SMTP Settings to receive email notifications.

  • You can place access points only up to the license limit, regardless of the number of access points discovered.

You can filter data on this page using the filter options of the displayed columns. For example, data is filtered and displayed only for APs AP7 and AP8.
