Please allow Access Points to be Renamed in Central - currently can't after registration. Useful if Name Scheme Changes, etc.

Hello Sophos,

we use multiple access points with captive portal and voucher codes in the office.
Moving in the Building could lead to a connection to a different AP and requires a new Voucher authentication. This happens every time the WIFI device changes the access point and is very annoying.
Is there a way to make the voucher auth. accepted over all APs that have the Captive Portal enabled? (this concept worked with a on site UTM/SG before)
Thanks.

The 'sites' is a good thing in Central Wireless to check your network heatmap by moving around AP devices. But these devices have to be physical devices.

Wouldn't it be great if we could create wifi heatmaps and simulations using 'dummy' access points? Just select your model or models and move them around your uploaded map or maps.

This gives our engineering team, as well as clients, a better picture of what to deploy instead of ofering APs and assuming they'll be a good fit.

This is a Feature Request, maybe it will be interesting to have a user portal on Wireless environment to generate Wireless access vouchers directly from web by "reception/administration" people.

Use the same SSID on different locations with different configurations (e.g. VLAN)
On XG it is possible because the content of a ap group depends on a name of the SSID and not on the SSID itself.
Map the SSID in the central configuration by an id and not by the SSID.
This is a must in my opinion for costumers with many different locations

Find a way to implement a local cap or restriction on bandwidth for an SSID instead of restricting the speed at the VLAN level.

Live and historical bandwidth usage (not connection speed) not just per AP but also narrowed down to the SSID and device connected on that channel.

When Will Central Wireless get BLE support for APX H/W it's on the access points, but we can't utilise it still?? Is this coming anytime soon as I'd really like to use it with my IOT?

on Sophos central we are able to control Bands over SSIDs not AP
and this is a big limit when we have multiple APs installed and want to stop a band on one of them I know this is possible on XG but we need same ability on Sophos central

Need to be able to clear "WiFi" gateway unreachable alerts in one-click, not each alert individually.

It would be very helpful to have an API we could use to add MAC addresses to an SSID.

When placing APs on a Floorplan, can you please show an "Access Point" dot or icon so we know where it is and can differentiate position on the plans.

Thanks.

Allow QoS rules for eg. VoIP, streaming, etc. in a wireless network.

Update vendor mac database, as eg. Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10e are not recognized as being from SAMSUNG ELECTRO-MECHANICS(THAILAND)

Currently it is not possible to disable specific bands. We would like to disable the (legacy) 802.11b band for example, as it is limiting both performance and preventing clients to hop over to another accesspoint.

Hi,
Can you please make it possible to rename "Device Name" in order to have view of all devices connected to the AP by custom name.

For environments where WPA enterprise is used, provide a way to view the user account used to authenticate a certain device to the wireless network.

Provide the ability to display more information in the Sophos Central - Wireless - Devices view:
- Allow column sorting
- Allow adding of additional columns

 -- Device signal strengh

 -- For Enterprise WPA users, display the username used to associate/authenticate device

It would be good if we can set AP's to reboot out of hours without having to manually log on and reboot. This is possible with Watchguard AP's we currently use.
