Functionality of the license

The WLAN Controller functionality is available at each R-Serie, W-Serie and WI-Serie with software release 7.9.6 or higher and requires a license.

Up to 6 APs are manageable from one of the Access Points (Master-AP). No dedicated hardware for the controller is required. The Master-AP required the WLAN controller licenses.

If the network contain more than 6 APs, a bintec router i.e. R1202 is required as WLAN controller.

The Slave APs requires no license, but a software release 7.9.6 or higher.

Without WLAN controller license only one AP is manageable. This enables the customer to testing the WLAN controller free of charge.
