An access point can be disabled with the following commands.
> use wlan1
wlan1> set enable=no
The access point status can be set via the web interface using the appropriate “wlanN” tab on
the “Wireless Interfaces” page (see Figure 32).
An access point can be configured when it is disabled and parameters are maintained when it
is disabled.

Table 9. Access point channels and frequencies
Note that only channels 1, 6, and 11 are non-overlapping.
It is not possible to configure access points to use different channels. If ‘channel’ in
the ‘wlan2’ interface is changed, the same change will be made to ‘channel’ in
‘wlan1’, ‘wlan3’, and ‘wlan4’ interfaces. The nodes in a mesh cluster can be set to
use different access point channels though.
The example below shows how to set the AP channel to 6.
