Sophos WiFi APs - client roaming?

RickBurgess

Can Sophos APs provide seamless client roaming? I haven't seen it in the literature. I'm looking for some bring similar to Aruba's client match or Ubiquiti's zero handoff.

For a little background, I'm about to install some new XG appliances (210 and 125) for a couple of offices, but I also need to install several wifi access points. I like the idea of a vertically integrated solution by adding several Sophos AP55 or AP55cs... The hardware looks good, but roaming is an important feature for at least one of the offices. The XG essentially acts like a wireless controller so this seems like it *should* be possible but I don't know.

    Hi Rick,

    Yes, Sophos AP(s) provide client roaming (only available with WPA2 Personal/Enterprise encryption mode). Simply enable Fast Transition in the Wireless Configurations | Advance tab, as mentioned in the previous post by Vilic.

    Thanks

    Hi,

     

    Just after some clarity as I have computers facing trouble when moving around the office.

     

    for client roaming, do i need to create a mesh network or will a wireless network added to the necessary APs suffice?

     

    My APs are set up in bridged to lan mode..

     

    thanks
