    IAP-205 (or IAP-305) should work. Just make sure that the new APs run the same version of code (so that they can join the cluster) and the VC has the "auto-join" feature enabled

    You are welcome.

    Furthermore, you can also consider IAP-225 as well since it is the recommended replacement for the IAP-135 (as indicated here: http://www.arubanetworks.com/support-services/end-of-life/)

    Can you provide the code you are running (entire string)

    Keep in mind that the 305 doesn’t support 6.4.4.8-4.2.x , it requires instantOS 6.5.0.0 and up and the IAP-135 last supported code is -4.2.x

    The 205/225 are EOS

    You can add the IAP325 which can support the 6.4.4.8-4.2.2.x

    You can use the IAP-325 , make sure you update the new IAP325 to the version you are currently running before joining the IAP to the existing cluster
