Universal HW AP4xx*C Series IntroductionNEW!

WiNG 7.6.2 supports various universal hardware (UAPs) AP4xx*C. These access points can be deployed either as cloud access points or as on-prem access points. Universal access points allows the access points to switch back and forth between the two modes.

When deployed as a cloud access point, it will work with ExtremeCloud IQ (XIQ). When deployed as an on-prem access point, it can work with either WiNG controller in distributed mode or XCC in campus mode.
