We are planning to deploy just 3 units of AP3916i without controller. Is it possible that I can configure it without a physical or virtual controller? Same goes for other IdentiFi APs that requires small deployments.

afaik 3620 was a 3610 with external antennas.

So, in general you can’t use it as stand-alone. If you have a Image of a 3640, I think there was a way to flash it.

But in real, this thing is soooo old, I would recommend to not use it anymore. Last patch was in 2015.

Support should not give dates on product or code releases. The PM can reply here or we can ask to have them email you directly.

What about ExtremeCloud - could you ask the PM whether the AP3916 is on the road map for ExtremeCloud.

Hi Gerald,

The only standalone models were the AP3630 or AP3640, all other model AP's are made to get their configurations from a wireless appliance.

Hi Nathiya,

Thank you for your reply.

Does this also apply to all IdentiFi Wireless?

Hi Gerald,

AP3916 cannot be used as standalone AP. You need a physical or virtual controller.

Can Extreme Wireless (IdentiFi) be deployed as stand-alone or it really needs a controller?
