Correct. The WLAN exists, but since it is not in any "AP-group", it is not being transmitted.

Hector- For clarity, if you configure an AP and simply leave it in the default group, are you saying that in some cases all SSIDs don't get transmitted? This (WLAN Override) has been the one single area I point to since the Airespace days that was fundamentally wrongly implemented. Was hoping that the new AP Groups would be the long overdue salvation. Please keep us posted, and I wonder if anyone is having production-quality success with the AP groups function? I have this in my near future, so my interest is peaked.

I've got an update on AP groups. We've had quite an interesting week. As I mentioned before, we are running 5.2.178 code on our WiSMs, and after applying the new ap groups to a more extensive number of APs we are started experiencing problems. The one problem that I can mention to you guys is better explained if I paste some output directly from one of our WiSMs' CLI (see below). The command "show wlan summary" gives you all the WLANs configured in your WiSM. The command "show wlan apgroups" should list all apgroups configured and their associated WLANS. The interesting thing is that the "default-group" is the one group that is not "user-created", cannot be erased and therefore should contain all the WLANs. It is clear that is not the case for us and that's just one of the issues we have run into so far. We've been working with TAC hoping they can provide us with a solution. This could be very specific to our setup, but I just wanted to pass it along to make you guys aware of this potential issue. You've been warned.
