Model: EAP225-Outdoor  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 5.1.1

Im managing my network with oc200. 

I recently clicked on reconnect button under a certain client in my network. Im not sure if it forces the client to reconnect to the network or removes it.

 

Im just concerned. what exactly is the purpose of that reconnect under every client.

Yes, it disconnects the client. The client may or may not connect to the same SSID or even AP. It all depends on the client's Auto Connect settings and the current Wi-Fi situation.

  @Tieei I believe it forces a disconnect and re-attach, but not sure which mechanism is used...probably DHCP. Useful if you changed say the reserved IP.
