Sophos UTM with non Sophos Wireless?

Morning all.

decided to install Sophos UTM as my firewall (from a custom Linux box) and have a question about the wifi management... Can Sophos UTM manage non Sophos Wifi APs? or should i just create a VLAN, and associate that VLAN with the wifi network, and leave the auth, etc, to the wifi AP? I use Ubnt APs...

Thanks.

    As Emmanuel explained, the Sophos can only manage Sophos APs.

    The only portion of Wireless Protection that you can use with your APs is the Hotspot functionality.  That applies to an Interface regardless of the underlying hardware whether it be a physical NIC or a virtual one like VLANs and the wlan NIC created for Sophos Wireless networks defined on Sophos APs.

    Cheers - Bob
