Sophos XG AP reboot - AWETOOL

Mike Brankin

Hi all, 

Hope you can help.

I'm trying to reboot all APs attached to an XG using the Awetool, as per this KB article https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/133686 but I'm having real trouble navigating it.

I can select '2' to execute a command on all APs but the issue is the part when I select which APs to run the command on.

I can select the first AP but hitting the '1' key and tapping space, second by hitting '2' and then space etc but the XG has 15 APs attached. I have no idea how to select numbers 10 to 15. I've tried every key combo I can think of with no luck.

Any ideas? Is it even possible?

Thanks,

 

Mike

    When you enter the "awetool" and select the option 1 to list all the APs and then select the AP you want to reboot. Please try to follow the below given steps.

    1. Log into the command-line interface (CLI) as follow:
      1. Login with username: admin
      2. Enter the admin password
      3. Use Option 5 for Device Management
      4. Use Option 3 for Advance shell
    2. Type the following command to connect to the Access Point's console from the XG's console:

      awetool
