Hello, I had a question regarding the follow models of IAP-215:
Rest of World (IAP-215-RW)
Japan (IAP-215-JP)
I was checking through the selectable countries in the -RW model of AP and noticed that Japan was present in the list (code: JP3). I configured the -RW model AP to the “JP3” country code and pulled the allowed channels and transmit power restrictions from the CLI.
I then checked the -JP model of AP, I noticed that it also used the country code of “JP3”. When I pulled the allowed channels and transmit power restrictions from the -JP model AP, the output matched that of the -RW model AP exactly.
I know that some countries have heavy restrictions on usage and configuration that require specific models (USA/Canada, Israel, etc) so it seems very strange to me to have a specific -JP model AP when the -RW model can be configured to the same country code with the same channel and power restrictions.
Is this a mistake in the code? It seems like the -RW model should have “JP3” as an allowable country code selection. For example, the -RW model AP does not have a valid country selection for the United States or Israel because those countries have regulatory restrictions that require a specific model.
Could you help clarify why both the -JP and -RW model of IAP-215 (6.5.0.0-4.3.0.0_56428 firmware version for both) can each select “JP3” as the country configuration?
