By checking the default wireless service
Use this method to identify whether an AP is operating in cloud mode. An AP operating in cloud
mode provides a wireless service with an SSID of H3C_xxxxxx, where xxxxxx is the last six digits of
the AP’s MAC address. After the AP is powered on, you can use a client to search for this network. If
this network is available, the AP is operating in cloud mode.
