Hi !, I'm a french student and I have a Fortigate 30D in 6.0.4 (without license),

 

I have a question, If I buy a FortiAP 220B with FortiOS 5.2 he is compatible with my fortigate 30D which is in 6.0.4 release ?

 

Thanks ;)

    V6.0.4 release notes say for the support of FortiAP firmware as below:

    [ul]
  • 5.4.2 and later
  • 5.6.0 and later[/ul]

    FAP's 5.2 is very ancient about when FortiOS was 5.2.x or early 5.4.x. If you already have it, you might want to try but if you're considering getting it from a 2nd hand market, I would skip it.

    I know it's a tricky business. I've been there too. The key is to keep all device family and software at about the same generation to be cost effective at the same time they work each others without encountering "generation gaps".

    If I buy this AP, it's for use at Home it's not for business, I juste need to create multiple SSID with different vLAN, the AP support 802.11n, it's ok for me... for 75€ ...
