Renaming AP
Hey guys. I'm new to Aruba, coming over from Ubiquiti. I recently got some AP-635s and started deploying them, but trying to navigate New Central alongside Classic Central has been a massive headache.
My biggest problem right now is something that should be simple: I cannot get these APs renamed.
At first, I thought I figured out the workflow: add the device, attach the license, and then in Classic Central, once it connects and shows up in the default group, rename it there before moving it to my production group (running AOS10).
But for the APs already in my production group, there is no option to edit the name anymore (maybe because of auto-provisioning, I'm not sure). If I move them back to a group where I can change the name, it actually shows the custom name I gave it earlier. But the second I put it back into the production group, it reverts right back to showing the MAC address.
I've gone through the official help articles, but they all just give the same basic advice: go to Classic, go to device groups, open the devices, go to the Access Point tab under config, and click rename.
That is not working for me. When the AP is in my AOS10 group, trying to do this just shows a config audit tab or something similar.
I've deployed a batch of these over the last two weeks and they are all running in production now, but two of them are stubbornly stuck showing their MAC addresses.
Has anyone run into this UI loop before? Any advice would be appreciated before I burn these things down and buy TP-Link or some shit out of pure frustration.
