A wireless AP physically connects to a LAN infrastructure and establishes an IP connection to
ExtremeCloud Appliance, which manages the AP configuration through the Wireless Assistant. The
appliance provides both distributed and centralized management (verification and upgrade) of the AP
firmware image.
ExtremeWireless AP39xx support a Centralized site. ExtremeWireless WiNG APs support a Distributed
site. The ExtremeMobility AP5xx support either a Centralized or Distributed site. The AP5xx support is
determined by the site type at discovery and registration.
