How can I disable discovery of Access Points on individual WLCs in Spectrum

Environment

Release: Any
Component:

Resolution

 

Note: This description is specific to Cisco but applies to Aruba also (ArubaControllerApp). 
 
In a scenario where you want to not have Access Points discovered on an individual WLC you need to set the “enableAPDisc” attribute value to “No” on
    the Cisco_LWAPP_App associated to the WLC.


 

Note: After setting this attribute to “No” make sure to NOT run a discovery from the WLC Manager as this will always set the “enableAPDisc” attribute
              value to “Yes” on the Cisco_LWAPP_App for all WLCs

Additional Information

Access Point models are still being created after setting the enableAPDisc to "No" on WLC models in Spectrum
