Hi All,
I would like to get a list of all the BSSID's on a FortiGate, with the name of the AP it's assosiated with, so in essens a list like:
AP1,BSSID1
AP1,BSSID2
AP1,BSSIDn
AP2,BSSID1
AP2,BSSID2
AP2,BSSIDn
etc..
Is there a way to do that, seems like CLI is needed, or do I look in the wrong place in GUI?

Seems like the diagnose command can give some of it, but it then has to be merged from several commands..
NYB-HX-FG01 # diagnose wireless-controller wlac -d wtp
vf=0 mpId=0 wtp=11 id=NYB-AP-BaghusUdlejere base=00:0c:e6:df:b2:70 10.11.7.11:35506(63)<->10.11.7.1:5247 use=7 10.11.7.11:5246
vf=0 mpId=0 wtp=14 id=NYB-AP-ITKontor base=84:39:8f:15:c2:48 10.11.7.12:52817(63)<->10.11.7.1:5247 use=10 10.11.7.12:5246
vf=0 mpId=0 wtp=43 id=NYB-AP-02 base=74:78:a6:b8:e6:30 10.11.7.24:38028(63)<->10.11.7.1:5247 use=11 10.11.7.24:5246
And:
NYB-HX-FG01 # diagnose wireless-controller wlac -d vap
vf=0 mpId=0 wtp=43 wlan=N/A bssid=74:78:a6:b8:e6:40 tun=00 in_kern=0 lan=0 vlan_id=0 monitor=1 igmp_snooping=0 mcgrp_num4=0 mc_discard4=0 mcgrp_num6=0 mc_discard6=0 idx=0 use=3
vf=0 mpId=0 wtp=43 wlan=flexAHHG bssid=74:78:a6:b8:e6:38 tun=01 in_kern=1 lan=0 vlan_id=11 monitor=0 igmp_snooping=0 mcgrp_num4=0 mc_discard4=0 mcgrp_num6=0 mc_discard6=0 idx=0 use=9
vf=0 mpId=0 wtp=43 wlan=flexAHHG bssid=74:78:a6:b8:e6:30 tun=01 in_kern=1 lan=0 vlan_id=11 monitor=0 igmp_snooping=0 mcgrp_num4=0 mc_discard4=0 mcgrp_num6=0 mc_discard6=0 idx=0 use=7
wlan=N/A seems to be Hidden SSID's.. why does the CLI hide it.. I wonder..
Hi Jacob
Additionally to the above, you can try one of these if they suit you.
diagnose wireless-controller wlac_hlp -c wlan
diagnose wireless-controller wlac -c vap
Ohhhh...
diagnose wireless-controller wlac -c vap
is sooooooo close, but list the FortiAp Serialnumber, not the Name of the unit.. but that could be remedied in an Excel sheet..
Getting the AP Name along with the serialnumber, can be done via:
config wireless-controller wtp
show | grep 'edit\|set name\|next'
It can propably be done in a nicer output, and then merge it with
dagnose wireless-controller wlac -c vap
but it's a start..
For those wondering why, I need that data, it's to show the Names of the AP's in wireless site surveys, making it much easier to see what AP's are covering what areas:
Nice job!

Wouldn't it accomplish the same thing if you assign an unique SSID to each AP? I know, of course, it requires more config.
Toshi
Nope.
Each AP has a BSSID pr. radio pr. SSID, so that would not help.
So, if you have 3 SSID's on two radios, you have 6 BSSID's pr. AP.
I can ignore all-but-one SSID in the survay map, as they will all have the same radio profile set, unless one is 2.4GHz and another is 5GHz-only.. but you will still have a BSSID pr. radio pr. AP.
