    Hey,

     

    We have parallel setup of 72xx controllers in AOS6 and AOS8.

    In production there are about ~3000 APs in AOS 6. During the AP migration to AOS8, how much APs can be grouped to migrate at a time. For eg group of 50, 100, 200 APs. Appreciate the response. 

     

    Thanks in advance

    Hi,

    You can use the migration tool to make it more smooth 

    Link: https://www.arubanetworks.com/techdocs/ArubaOS_86_Web_Help/Content/migrationguide/overview.htm 

    It will show a compatible way to migrate it to given scenarios.

    I think my question is not about migration tools or manual. I’m looking for an answer for how many numbers of APs can be selected to point to AOS 8 during the migration phase

    There are no official numbers about that. As long as you do not exceed the platform capacity you should be fine..
