AP not listed in Sophos Central Report Hub

Hello,

Thanks for reaching out to Sophos Community.

Wireless management is on Sophos Central as per your statement above. Hence, it would show 0 managed wifi APs since none of them is being managed by Sophos Firewall.

Regards,

Sure. That makes sense. But if I do not manage them in Sophos Central, I lose all the other features like rogue AP detection, site surveys, etc.. Is that correct? Are there advantages to managing them in the firewall? I'll have to try removing one of the APs from Central to see what I get in the report hub.

Hello Hugh,

Thanks for the update. Rogue AP scan is still available on SF Management: https://doc.sophos.com/nsg/sophos-firewall/20.0/help/en-us/webhelp/onlinehelp/AdministratorHelp/Wireless/RogueAPScan/index.html

Site/Floor Plan feature is on Central Management only: https://doc.sophos.com/central/customer/help/en-us/ManageYourProducts/Wireless/Sites/index.html#floor-plans

Managing your APs on Central reduces hardware resources on-premises/ controller-based solutions. On Central extending and scaling Wireless network is relatively simple compare to an on-premise approach.
