Hello! We have Cisco 2500 Series controller and 25 AP's. Recently I faced with task of disabling 2.4GHz radio interface only on one specific AP. I found two ways to achive it:
1. from controller by running command - (Cisco Controller) config>802.11b disable AP01
2. from AP01 itself by shutting down Radio 0 interface.
But a problem is - after restart of AP the Radio0 interface back to UP.
Anyone have solution for this?
Thank's!

You need to go to
Wireless --> Access Points --> 802.11b/g/n -->hover the arrow adjacent to the AP you want
click configure
Admin status --> Disabled

are you using AP groups with RF profiles ?
what is the version of WLC ?
You may be hitting
CSCug53945 disabled radio is enabled after AP reload when AP group uses RF profile
Symptom:
After AP reload, radio which was disabled before AP reload is somehow re-enabled automatically. This happens when the AP belongs to an RF profile.
Conditions:
AP joins non-default AP group and AP group has RF profile.
Workaround:
Manually disable radio on AP again after reload

Yes, the RF profile was the issue. I revert it to none and that fix the problem!
Thank's a lot!
