The basic process on naming APs can be done from the CLI of that SmartZone in a manner similar to this. Some tweaks may need to be made depending on your firmware version:

SSH admin@smartzone

enable

config

Run per AP:

ap 58:b6:33:11:22:33

name NameOfAP

description "some description"

exit

yes

Hi Veenit,

On this scenario, you can utilize the batch provisioning feature. It is available on version 3.6 and above. With this feature, you can input the actual desired name corresponding to mac-address.

Please check admin guide on the details on how to use batch provisioning.

Regards,

Lloyd
