Instant APs Managed by Aruba Central |

20

In Central managed networks, the AP and Central communicate over a websocket connection to exchange
configuration and monitoring data. Therefore, uninterrupted connectivity is integral in Central managed
networks and loss in internet connectivity can stall configuration changes and monitoring updates.

The following procedure describes how to troubleshoot issues, if the AP fails to receive configurations from
Central:

1.

Check the Configuration Status of Central

2.

Ensure That the AP is Placed in a Configuration Group in Central

3.

Verify the Configurations Received from Central

4.

Restart the Central Websocket Connection

Before starting the troubleshooting process, ensure that the AP is connected to Central.

Check the Configuration Status of Central

Run the

show ap debug cloud-server

command in the CLI of the AP to view the status of the Central

connection. Check

cloud config recved

to identify if the AP has received configurations from Central. A

TRUE

state implies that the AP has received configurations and a

FALSE

 state implies that the AP has not

received configurations.

The sample below displays the Central connection status, generated by the

show ap debug cloud-server

command:
