WatchGuard AP420 access point

The WatchGuard AP420 is an 802.11ac Wave 2 access point with a tight wireless security. It has a ton of management options. It can be managed as a standalone AP, remotely via WatchGuard’s FireBox firewalls or in the cloud with the Wi-Fi Cloud service.

This is a Wave 2 dual-band AP that has not two, but three radios. Along with the 2.4GHz and 5GHz variety, the AP420 has a WIPS radio. It’s designed to detect unauthorized APs and quarantine them.

The AP420 only ‘plays’ with APs that are physically wired into the same network. If someone tries to sneak their own AP onto the network, the AP420 will find it. Then it will alert you to its presence. And if intrusion prevention is on, it will disable it.

A little about licensing

You can choose the management method when you purchase the AP420. It’ll have the Basic Wi-Fi license enabling Firebox management. WIPS is enabled with cloud management. A Secure Wi-Fi license gives you this plus the Go mobile web app and network monitoring tools. The Total Wi-Fi subscription adds location-based usage analysis. It also gives you the Engage app for gathering guest user demographics. Ask us about the additional licensing options!
