    Can AP-225 be configured to register to a primary and a backup controller? Our aim is to have the Aruba AP's register to one controller and in case that fails have it register to a different controller.

    Both these controllers would be on a different modeland could be on a different software code also.

     

    Any suggestion?

     

    thanks,

    N.

    You cannot have an access point fail over to controllers with different versions of code, no.  The problem is that the access point either upgrades or downgrades to the code of the controller that it attempt to connect to, if the code does not match.  That creates an outage and a boot loop and is not supported.
