Can a AP225 be used as a wireless client

  • 1.  Can a AP225 be used as a wireless client

    Posted Aug 01, 2017 11:52 AM

    We have an AP225 that we want to use as a wireless client to connect 3 other non-wireless devices. It has POE power and one of the devices is a Cisco switch. Can I do this or do I need the IAP225?

     

    The existing wireless environment is Aruba with a controller.

    Neither AP-225 or IAP-225 will act as a wireless client. You would want the Aruba 501 if you need a wireless client/client bridge. You can use the AP-225 (with a controller and another AP) for mesh; or use the IAP-225 (with another IAP) for mesh if you are needing a network extension.
