Stand alone FortiAP 221C

I open the web interface of my fortiAP 221C.

 Is there an option to manage it from there without FortiGate from web or CLI?

I looked for guides  , but didn't find anything that can help me.

 

Thanks.

Hello,

FortiAP Cloud offers management capabilities for standalone FortiAPs that scale from individual organizations
managing a handful of APs, to large enterprises managing several thousand APs. FortiAP Cloud allows you to provision,
monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize your FortiAP deployment through a simple, intuitive, and easy-to-use cloud interface
that is accessible from anywhere. With zero-touch deployment options, FortiAP Cloud eliminates the need for costly on- site technical expertise. A FortiAP Cloud license key ships with each FortiAP, allowing an administrator to quickly add APs to the service.
With the FortiAP Cloud provisioning and management portal, you can manage and configure FortiAP, FortiAP-C, FortiAP-S, FortiAP-W2, and FortiAP-U units.
For more details about FortiAP Cloud, see the FortiAP Cloud documentation.

This particular model is out of support since 2023-10-14. I'm not quite sure but I believe that FortiLAN Cloud will not manage it any longer but you can give it a try following this steps.
