Mesh disabled in ZD, but 'AIR' LED flashing

unknown

Have a z7982 that is flashing it's "AIR" LED as if it were trying to airmesh, but that is disabled in the ZD config for it.

There are about 20 other 7982s deployed and they are all acting normally and identically configured, so it's a bit concerning.

Just trying to find out a) what that would indicate, or b) if it just means the AP is screwed and needs to take a ride on the RMA train...

Hi Gregory,

   Have you tried factory defaulting this AP, with it's cable attached (as you don't have Mesh enabled
on the ZD), and see if it can get re-configured, and here's the latest 7982 AP User Guide to see what
the LEDs mean.  From Support, Products, Indoor APs, 7982, Docs, here's the Solo AP 100.1.0.0.194
User Guide URL:

   The 7982 details begin on page 42, and page 43 has the LEDs and their meanings.  Here's the
AIR LED specifics:

•Off: The AP is operating in standalone mode or operating as a root AP (RAP) or a non-mesh AP.
•Green: The AP is functioning as a Mesh AP (MAP), and the wireless signal to its uplink AP is good.
•Fast flashing green (two flashes every second): The AP is functioning as a Mesh AP (MAP), and
the wireless signal to its uplink AP is fair.
•Slow flashing green (one flash every two seconds): Mesh networking is enabled, but the AP is still
searching for a mesh uplink.
