Understanding Access Point Shutdown

Unplugging an access point from its power source shuts down access point functions. The access point broadcasts a deauthentication message to connected wireless clients. This action triggers the clients to start authentication and association processes immediately with other available access points.

When an access point is unplugged, it is no longer manageable from the SRX Series device. There is no CLI command to shut down an access point.
