we'll be replacing our old Aruba APs w/ FortiAPs, each site has a fortigate connected to fortiswitch, but beyond the Fortiswitch are cisco switches. quick question; can I connect a fortiAP to a poe Cisco switch? maybe same vlan config would work (ideally)? I know when FortiAP is connected directly to Fortiswitch everything works great.
On either side, FGT side or FAP side, the config doesn't have anything related to FortiSwitch other than just VLANs if you use VLANs. Regardless of the type of switches you have, you can have FGT-controlled FAPs.
