AP Power Modes

Hi,

We've recently taken control of our Fortinet system and it seems to be a nightmare if you don't know what your doing! Some of our APs are listed as 'low power' operating mode and a few are 'normal'. Is there anyway to change this from the CLI as either I'm looking at the wrong place, or it's not actually possible without a command? We're seemingly running FortiWLC on a VM version 8.6.1 build 7.

 

Any help would be extremely appreciated!

@ElmwoodInfants 
You can get more info about Fortinet AP
Signal strength issues | FortiAP / FortiWiFi 7.4.1 | Fortinet Document Library

And you can check CLI
config wireless-controller wtp | FortiGate / FortiOS 7.2.1 | Fortinet Document Library

Or you manage all your APs through FortiWLC and you need command reference for that device?

If the AP is running in low power mode than maybe is related to the PoE budget of the switch where this AP are connected or the adapter limitation if they are powered by an external adapter.
