How can i migrate a AP6522-E to a WiNG Enterprise AP? Inside the release notes of 5.9.2 firmware this is what they say:
WiNG Express Portfolio Migration WiNG 5.9.2 adds ability to migrate WiNG Express AP to WiNG Enterprise AP. Once upgraded to WiNG 5.9.2, WiNG Express AP will become functionally equivalent of WiNG Enterprise AP.  Following WiNG Express APs can be migrated by upgrading to WiNG 5.9.2: AP 6522E, AP 6562E, AP 7502E, AP 7522E.  WiNG Express controllers are not supported with WiNG 5.9.2.  WiNG Enterprise controllers running WiNG 5.9.2 can be used to upgrade and manage supported Express APs as well as Enterprise APs on the same network.  AP 6511E, AP 6521E are out of support and can’t be upgraded to WiNG 5.9.2.

Hi Matthijs,
I've had clarification from a senior colleague of the following: The 5.9.2. Enterprise 'upgrade' for WiNG Express APs does not change the AP's UI feature-set. It can still only run Swift UI. I understand this is due to hardware restrictions within the AP.
What the 5.9.2. upgrade enables within the AP is the facility to be adopted by a WiNG Enterprise controller. When the AP is adopted to a controller the web-based UI is normally disabled.
I trust this clarifies the situation.
Regards,
Darrel.

Hi Matthijs,
Thanks for the clarification and screenshot.
You simply need to convert the UI to Enterprise mode: https://gtacknowledge.extremenetworks.com/articles/How_To/How-to-change-SwiftUI-to-Enterprise
Let me know how you get on.
Thanks,
Darrel.

Hello, i already upgraded the AP to 5.9.2 but the GUI is still Express. I cannot change this anywhere. When i login to the GUI I still see Express AP.
