A cloud-managed access point (AP) can integrate with the Extreme AirDefense® Service Platform, which allows the AP to function as an AirDefense sensor, or to act as a sensor and retain the ability to forward traffic.
In dedicated sensor mode, the AP operates independently from ExtremeCloud while ExtremeCloud continues to see the AP and display the AP role as a dedicated AirDefense sensor. In its role as a dedicated sensor, the AP does not report statistics to the ExtremeCloud.
If a site is deleted, the associated profile is deleted.
