Cisco WAP131 and WAP351 Administration Guide
The Radio and VAP scheduler allows you to configure a rule with a specific time
interval for VAPs or radios to be operational, which automates the enabling or
disabling of the VAPs and radio.
One way that you can use this feature is to schedule the radio to operate only
during the office working hours in order to achieve security and reduce power
consumption. You can also use the scheduler to allow access to VAPs for the
wireless clients only during specific times of day.
The WAP device supports up to 16 profiles. Only valid rules are added to the
profile. Up to 16 rules are grouped together to form a scheduling profile. Periodic
time entries belonging to the same profile cannot overlap.

Adding Scheduler Profiles

You can create up to 16 scheduler profile names. By default, no profiles are
created.
To view the scheduler status and add a scheduler profile:
Select Wireless > Scheduler.
Ensure that the Administrative Mode is enabled. By default it is disabled.
The Scheduler Operational Status area indicates the current operation status of
the Scheduler:
• Status—The operational status (Enabled or Disabled) of the Scheduler. The
default is Disabled.
• Reason—The reason for the scheduler operational status. Possible values
are:
- IsActive—The scheduler is administratively enabled.
- Administrative Mode is disabled—The scheduler administrative mode
is disabled.
- System Time is out dated—The system time is out dated.
- ManagedMode—The scheduler is in managed mode.
