Hello, I don't understand how works Sophos Central with new AP6 Access Point. I need to migrate from Wireless Controller on UTM 9 to Sophos Central with APX. I have 3 networks configured on Sophos Central, as I have on UTM 9 : PRIVE-INTERCO-IOT…

Hi, My APX120 will not update to CM where it is registered because the SSL/TLS fails the certificate. How do I enable the APX120 to received a new certificate? Ian

Company is moving next year and we were planning on getting a dozen of AP6. Issue is, we are not allowed to mount on the ceiling. Only solution for an horizontal mount would be an angled mounting bracket. Does anyone know of some universal bracket…

Current Situation : The client has multiple buildings, each with distinct VLANs (e.g., VLAN 100, 200, 300) and a dedicated SSID per building (e.g., SSID: Wifi_Building1 for Building 1, Wifi_Building2 for Building 2, etc.). Expectation : The goal is…

Hi all, This post is to hopefully help others. Issue: The AP6 420X units were randomly dropping off the network, so the entire unit including the wifi networks, would die for 2 - 5 minutes then come back. There was no pattern to the dropouts and happened…

Hello Due to a known issue of AP6 that the users cannot connect to the WIFI when the scheduler is enabled. Anyone knows when the AP6 MR5 firmware will be released?

Hi, we have 3 ssids running, managed by Sophos Central using APX320. One of these SSIDs is a guest-wlan and we use the "Hotspot function" /Captive Portal. By now I have to do administrattive jobs as well as creating the vouchers for guests. Is there…

Dear All, We are running some tests with APX and AP6 access points managed on Sophos Central. Our APX access points are all declared on our XGS3100 and working fine with 3 types of SSIDs. One is a bridge mode to our LAN, one is for or mobile devices and…

Hello, in the device overview, only the MAC addresses are displayed as the device names of the connected clients. Is it currently not possible to display the host names? Olaf

Dear Support, We recently purchased an AccessPoint AP6 420 to extend our WiFi configuration. Prior to that purchase, we had several AccessPoints APX model that were managed by our XGS3100 Firewall On Premise. As the new AP6 must be configured through…

Hi, we're struggling for a while with our new XGS + AP6 environment. Problems are different, most not fully reproducable, but customers are getting crazy trying to use wifi. LAN is working properly, we also have XGS with similar config (but with APx)…

Hi, we migrated a site from XG210 to XGS2300 with SFOS is 20.0.2 . They have three Access Point APX320 and four Access Points AP55C. The APX320 work fine, but of course the AP55C don't work anymore with the XGS. Now we wanted to register the AP55C with…

After testing an APX320 on a Sophos MR21 EAP, it no longer seems to work on the SFOS MR20.0 GA. The AP loads the config from the XGS and starts, but after a few minutes the red LED comes on and the WLAN is disturbed. I have deleted the APX320 in the…

We had two Sophos access points which kept saying inactive and no matter what we did couldn't get them active, so we deleted them from XGS and factory reset the two access points (held reset for 30 seconds) but now they're not appearing in the XGS at…

We recently moved to a new office and decided to upgrade our two APX 320s to two AP6 420s. The specs on the new APs look great in paper but once we tested them in real life the increase in performance wasn't as much as we expected. Anyways at least in…

Greetings! I would like to ask if there is a way to download the latest firmware for the Sophos AP6 so that we can manually upload it via the GUI. Scenario: We are facing issues with registration to Sophos Central, which only succeeds after upgrading…

The checkbox for an AP6 420E says: "Band steering: Dual-band capable wireless clients will be steered to 5 GHz by default." Is this just old phrasing, or does it only apply to 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, but not 6 GHz? Or is it no longer necessary with WiFi…

Hi, we try to transfer our UTM-Customer with old AP-Models to Sophos Central Wireless with AP6. The Customer uses Certificate based Authentication in combination with Windows Server 2019 Network Policy Service and Active Directory integrated Certificate…

Guten Tag Wir haben zwei APX 320 AP, welche nicht mehr Online -- bleibt inaktiv Ich kann den AP wieder neu hinzufügen (d.h. komplett löschen, reset des Gerätes ... und nach der Verbindung mit der XGS geht er nicht mehr.) Er macht auch keine…

OBSERVATIOBN: Love the new AP6 420E, but man was that a painful experience. It accesses multiple sites -- apparently using QUIC -- so had to disable SSL decryption entirely and QUIC prevention entirely, and other stuff as I flailed around trying to get…

Hello, Currently have a bunch of APX units being managed using Sophos XGS firewalls and haven't made the jump to Central Wireless. One of my larger clients has their APs deployed on their factory floor and perform nightly manufacturing. The switches…

Hello everyone, We use the AP6 840E access points which are connected to POE ports that can supply a maximum of 30 watts. The access points still work. What restrictions should we expect?

I only found a manual Scan for Wireless Neigbors in Central, hidden in the Sites menu. Can I somehow trigger the AP to chose the best free channel NOW? There are situations that are optimal for this, e.g. an empty building with no WiFi users. …

Out of interest in the hardware and the built-in technology of the AP6-420, I am looking for a boot or console log of an AP6, before I invest money in the ap6 Can someone connect a USB cable and create a boot log from power on and to login prompt and…

Hi all, I created a mesh network with AP6 420 APs. Works fine now. I AP is not connected to LAN but to a seperate LAN network that should be bridged into the main LAN though WLAN mesh. How to configure that? Internet<->LAN<->AP1<->WLAN<->AP2<…
