Cisco Mobility Express 1850 to manage outdoor AP 1570

[Wei Kwong Ong]

Hi All,

When AP 1850 becomes the controller, is it able to manage outdoor AP 1570?

From the link below, there is a list of APs supported as Subordinates, does it mean the AP model which is not in the table (such as AP 1570) cannot be managed by the controller AP1850?

Thanks!

That is correct. The ME does not support the 1570's at the moment and don't think it will be supported later, but you never know. Here is a link to the matrix also with the supported AP's
