Regulatory Domain Restrictions for W-IAP to RAP or CAP Conversion
You can provision a W-IAP as a Campus AP or a Remote AP in a controller-based network. Before converting a
W-IAP, ensure that there is a regulatory domain match between the W-IAP and the controller.
The following table describes the regulatory domain restrictions that apply for the W-IAP-to-ArubaOS W-AP
