Flexconnect 2802i AP's

[JAYESH RAMAIYA]

Hi All

I have just started a role where I am working with WLC 5520 in a main coperate location.

Cisco 2802i AP's have already been purchased, installed and have been converted to capwap at a different location.

My question is, can we use one the Cisco 2802i AP's to run Flexconnect in the event of a outage if we have converted the Cisco 2802i from ME to capwap. 

Thank you

FlexConnect section mentions that 2800 models work just fine.

if you have 5520 WLC & AP operate in FlexConnect mode, then you do not require APs to convert to ME (Mobility Express mode). Leave AP in FlexConnect mode & even if you loose WLC connectivity AP able to serve in standalone mode.
