Dear Expert,

The Catalyst 3850 be able to connect Access Point.
I checked the CCO, but I don't know to connect the Access point directly or indirectly...
Does it must connect the Access Point to the Catalyst 3850 directly ?

Could you let me know about Catalyst 3850 to connect the Access point requirement ?
I want to know the CCO page  about it.
 
Best regards,

Hi

Refer below

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-3850-series-switches/qa_c67-722110.html

Q.    Does the Cisco Catalyst 3850 support indirectly connected access points?

A.     No. The Cisco Catalyst 3850 switch will always terminate the CAPWAP tunnel locally. Pass-through mode or indirectly connected access point is not supported at this time. Note that a Cisco Catalyst 3850 12-port or 24-port SFP model can be a good choice to act as mobility controller for a stack of Cisco Catalyst 3850 switches that terminate CAPWAP tunnels locally.
