You can try to enable Aironet IE in the WLAN SSID advanced tab. You can also look at the radio mac on the ap not the ethernet mac.

Thanks but what's the purpose of enabling that ?

It allows the AP to send out ap information including the AP name.

Will the AP's reboot after i apply that on the controller ?

Thanks

They won't, but that specific WLAN will temporarily go offline, your wireless clients will lose a packet or two
