Wireless Access Points (WAP or AP)
These are white boxes that are located on the ceiling of most rooms throughout district buildings. Each one projects a Wi-Fi signal. Most D11 WAP's are labeled with identifiers like AP - 104 or an asset tag. They will look like the below.
Interpreting Wireless Access Point (WAP or AP) Colors
Most WAP's have a light on the side indicating the status of the device and can be used to troubleshoot.
Solid Blue - WAP is ok and at least one device is connected
Solid Green - WAP is ok and waiting for devices to connect
Solid Red - WAP has a problem. If it persists submit a HappyFox ticket specifying which WAP is having an issue
Blinking Any Color - WAP is updating or rebooting. Please submit a HappyFox ticket if blinking continues for extended period
