You can run them in instant mode. One of them will be elected as the virtual controller, and can synchronize with other APs in the cluster. All that is required is that they are on the same VLAN/Subnet, and that they are running the same version of code. They will goin on boot, so upgrade and then factory reset. If you add another 635 after clustering the two, the new 635 or 560 will get is upgrade files (seed) from another AP of the same model and upgrade itself.

Subject: Aruba 635 indoor and 560 outdoor Access Points - Set up.
Hello,
I would like to know generally how the Aruba 635 indoor and 560 outdoor Access Points are typically set up and configured. Are they the same as the Instant Access Points, where a Virtual Controller is configured via the Instant Web UI and the cluster take their configs from that? Or would I need a seperate Wireless Controller?
It is an obvious consideration but it is not mentioned any documentation, and I cannot find anything searching the Internet.
Cheers for any help
