If I understand your question, you are wondering if you can convert a non-JP IAP to a controller based AP and terminate on a controller in Japan; is this right?
When an IAP converts to a controller based AP, as part of the conversion it performs a regulatory check to verify there is a match between the IAP and physical conttroller. This is mandatory for Aruba to maintain compliance with regulatory filings.
So, in summary. An IAP-105 (unrestricted domain) can only be converted to a controller that is also set to unrestricted; not one that is set to US, IL, or JP. This holds true for all other varations as well.
- IAP-105-US --> Convert to campus based AP on controller with US designation
- IAP-105-JP --> Convert to campus based AP on controller with JP designation
- IAP-105-IL --> Convert to campus based AP on controller with IL designation
- IAP-105 --> Convert to campus based AP on controller with unrestricted designation
