Hi Lee, The lights on the Cisco APs are so bright these days, that we do make an effort to turn them off when they're installed in bedrooms. If we don't, we find people unplug the AP to try and get some sleep!
Currently we do it manually on a per-AP basis. At one point our provisioning process used to automatically turn the LEDs off everywhere, but that stopped working during a model refresh of either AP or Controllers (I forget which) I should really get around to fixing that... -Paul On 6 September 2016 at 14:57, Lee H Badman <[email protected]> wrote: > First-world problems… Curious if others have gone down this road in > Residence Halls.
