The AP3000/X series access points are Wi-Fi 6E tri-radio
access points with support for multiple Extreme Networks operating systems. The
AP3000/X series access points include the following AP models:
AP3000 — Indoor access
point
AP3000X —

Note
The World-Wide Universal Access Points 6 GHz radios support only the following Wi-Fi
Alliance (WFA) 6E Compliant network authentication methods:
OWE (Opportunistic Wireless Encryption)
for Open Networks
WPA3-Personal
WPA3-Enterprise
WPA3-Enterprise 192-bit
mode
WPA3-Compatibility
Note
WPA3-Compatibility is
not WFA compliant.
WPA3-Compatibility supports both WPA2 Personal and WPA3 Personal on the same network.
If a WPA3-Compatibility network is assigned to 6 GHz radio, only WPA3 Personal is
assigned, thus making the network compliant.
ExtremeCloud IQ
requires that your 6 GHz radio network assignment be WFA 6E compliant. It rejects network
configuration changes that result in 6 GHz radio network assignments that are not compliant.
It might be necessary to redefine your networks when configuring the 6 GHz radio on the Universal Access
Points.
For the AP3000/X, before changing the Radio 1 configuration from 2.4
GHz to 6 GHz, ensure that the AP is assigned a WFA 6E compliant network.
Note
For all Extreme Networks access points, use the Extreme Networks
certified ACC-WIFI-MICRO-USB console cable. Other MICRO-USB console cables have not been
certified by Extreme Networks.
