Good morning!

Last year, we were seeing a lot of APs flopping up and down as they
changed channels or power levels (per the consultant) for no reason.
At that time, we upgraded to 5.2.148.0 and the issues mostly went
away, and the ones that remained we were able to work around and
planned to replace those APs in our next budget cycle.  Our consultant
indicated that there are still some issues with this with the new code
and old APs.

Today, we ran a report of all the 'down/up' events for all the APs and
we had around 350 over the last 12 hours.  We have around 200 APs, so
that average seems to be high.  That leads to two questions:

1) Does anyone know of a way to make the report indicated WHY it went
'down/up'?

2) How many times do you see your APs changing channels?  My thought
is that dynamically they should be changing all the time as load and
interference change, but I can't find any documentation to address
that.

Thanks!
