ZoneDirector 1200, smart mesh and different APs

[krzysztof_gagac]

Hi,

I am planning to use R510 APs in smart mesh but I would like to use r310/r300 normally connected to the network. Will this all work with ZoneDirector 1200 ?

Hi Krzysztof,
R300/R310 don't support Mesh

Kind regards
Martin

Hi,

I'm aware that R3xx does not support Mesh that's why I will use R510 for Mesh. I just want to use R310 as standard access point. Question is, will zone director be able to manage r510 in mesh and r310 in non mesh mode?

Zonedirector will be able to manage all your AP's however when it comes to handling R510 Mesh AP, there has to be a similar type radio AP as Root AP.
R310/300 cannot support mesh hence won;t be able to handle R510 as mesh AP.

Okay so if I connect R510 in mesh and leave R310 connected by ethernet in a normal mode it will all work. 

Simply saying I want to have 10 R510 in smart Mesh with 2 Root APS and 10 R310 connected by POE working in normal mode totally independent from mesh. I just wanted to make sure that there will be no issues with ZoneDirector.
