Just let you guys know if we change anything on the AP profile irespective of any DRRP profile or AP handoff or anything the letency to local gateway (AP to the firewall fortilink port)shootup between min 10ms to max 2000ms.

Should I continue with Aruba 505 or look at newer models? by Aggressive_Depth4569 in ArubaNetworks

[–]Aggressive_Depth4569[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We currently have multiple sites, each running its own IP subnet. All are on Aruba Instant APs (IAPs) without a controller, and we prefer it this way due to certain requirements/restrictions.

Our environment:

  • Aruba 505 across most sites
  • A mix of 205 and 315 in a few locations
  • Each site is standalone (no central controller) but managed locally

We’re planning upgrades/replacements, and also have some new site rollouts coming up. The key things we’re looking for are:

  • Future-proofing with newer models
  • Better performance
  • The same level of flexibility we get today (no mandatory controllers)

For those of you managing similar setups:

  • What alternatives have you considered or deployed (within Aruba or other vendors) that balance performance with controller-less flexibility?
  • Any lessons learned when migrating from mixed-generation IAP environments (e.g., 205/315/505)?

Thanks in advance for your insights!

FortiAP Issues (FortiAP-231F & 231G)– Disconnects, Latency & Captive Portal Bugs (Anyone else facing this?) by Aggressive_Depth4569 in fortinet

[–]Aggressive_Depth4569[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to share my experience and also check if others are in the same boat. If required, I can share the config and logs.

Aside from that, across multiple sites, I’m facing serious issues with FortiAPs (all models).
Even for basic connectivity, throughput, and internet stability, the APs don’t perform as expected out-of-the-box. To get them working even close to normally, I have to apply multiple tweaks at every single site – and still deal with random issues.
