(solved) Can not delete WTP-Profile (FWF 60D)

Hi, I have a FortiWifi 60D with actual Firmware Version 5.2.5. In the FortiAp Profile exists an Profile named 11n-only which cannot be deleted. The button is greyed out. I have checked all dependencies but there exists nothing to this profile anymore. My next step was to delete it via cli but the result was : Can not delete a static table entry Command fail This entry is shown: FortiWifi-60D # show wireless-controller wtp-profile 11n-only config wireless-controller wtp-profile     edit "11n-only"             config platform                 set type 60C             end         set ap-country DE             config radio-1                 set band 802.11n             end             config radio-2                 set mode disabled             end     next end The following step was to modify the configuration and delete the entry and than to reimport the configuration. Surprisingly it creates this Profile by itself. Does anyone have this behavior seen before? I know that this often happens if any dependencies exists but I can't find anything. Also nothing in the config. I must say that i bought the Unit for a couple of days an flashed them immediately from 5.2.3 to 5.2.5. So I can't say if these profile was in this state deletable. Is 11n-only an static Profile? Can it be that it was renamed ? Any help is appreciated.

I think "11n-only" is the default profile. If you backup the config and factoryreset it, you would still see it there. I doubt you could rename it although I haven't tried. Is there any particular reason you want to remove it? It wouldn't do anything until you apply the profile. You can create any new one.

Hi Toshi,

thanks for answer.

 

The problem is that these profile 11n-only is asigned in my FortiAp Profiles as a Custom Profile.

I know that some entries in the WTP-Profile Table are for custom and static-profiles (default).

Static Profiles are these which are for the Platform. But why is this profile visible?

 

I have a look on a 60D device (non Wifi) an your are also right that these is a default profile.

Maybe its a bug if you get the same profilename as its already in the internal table defined.

In this case it was declared as custom profile an therefore visible but never deleteable.

 

It doesn't really bother me. But i like to know how this can happens.

Probably that's the behavior of any FortiWiFi if not intentional because it has built-in WiFi on the device, which FortiGate doesn't have but just wifi controller to manage all FortiAPs.

I tried removing it via CLI on an FWF60D after removing all references and got below error.
