Question

ForitAP - AP_MGMT_VLAN_ID variable missing

Hi,

I have a strange case with some fortiAPs right now. 1x FAP 231G and 1x431F both on 7.6.4. I want to set a VLAN ID to have the management tagged but the variable is missing when typing cfg -s. Then i connected to the HTTPS GUI and the field is also missing. I typed in the command cfg -a AP_MGMT_VLAN_ID=200 on the CLI and I got no error. cfg -c for commit to flash. Nothing happened. Reboot and still no change, the AP won't take the VLAN ID. I have 100 more 231G on this site and also 20x431F and they all have the variable and it works fine. How is this possible? Anyone else encountering this problem?

    Can you try with the command: # get cfg AP_MGMT_VLAN_ID

    Is MESH configured on these APs? # cfg -s | grep MESH_AP_TYPE
