    This is only possible with Instant APs (model numbers that begin with IAP-).    For example, IAP-93, not AP-93.

    To expand on clembo's answer, you can find more information about the Instant AP products here: 

     

    http://www.arubanetworks.com/products/instant-access-points

     

    This page will tell you what IAP's are available and tell you about their features.

    The IAP models are the same as the standard AP's but with different firmware, so they look the same and have the same features.

    Just remember, like clembo said. the model numbers must begin with IAP, not AP :)

    Instant is the way to go but without knowing your particular use-case there is the following.

     

    RAP's in Bridge mode have a setting where you can broadcast the SSID Always even if the tunnel is down but as long as the AP has power it will broadcast.
