Insight back to Local WAC510

Hello,

I'm interested to try out the Insight Managed, but I'm unsure how I will be able to switch back to Local Managed if I don't want to stay with Insight Managed? Is there an option in the Insight Managed App to switch it back to local?

 

Thank you,

Rob

 

  • To keep it simple, take a config backup, convert the WAX510 to the Insight management (makes mainly sense if you have multiple WAC/WAX and at least one cloud managed switch). If you remove the devices from Insight, you can always recover from the config backup(s).

      Appreciate the advice! 

       

      I have only 2 WAC510s and no cloud managed switch. Maybe best I leave it alone then. 

       

      Thank you.

        The roaming behaviour for the two WAC could be enhanced in my understanding - in standalone management, the roaming capabilities are limited.
