Model: EAP235-Wall  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Dear all,

 

I have a question regarding the wall APs, especially the EAP235 and EAP615. These APs provide 3 downlink LAN ports. I would like to know if these ports provide internal switching? For example, if there are two devices connected to the downlink ports, can these devices communicate directly with each other, or does this incorporate the uplink switch?

 

Thanks in advance and best regards!

Just don't enable VLANs on them (which will tag packets) and they will work like a dumb switch on the default VLAN of the AP.
