Issues Setting up APX320 Access Points

By default a Sophos AP reaches out to 1.2.3.4 to try to register with a Sophos firewall upstream of it, for the Sophos firewall to control it. I seem to remember a warning about intermediate switches causing issues and that you should first attach the AP directly to the firewall and once it's registered you can move it behind switches. (Or that might only be for Sophos Central control of APs, I can't remember.)

Do you want to control the AP from a Sophos Firewall, or (better option) Sophos Central Wireless?

From Sophos FireWall itself we are not configured for Sophos Central Wireless. How would I connect directly to the firewall and have DHCP also Is the Firewall POE enabled or would I need a POE switch unmanaged to plug it in? Without the Stack commander plugged in how will the AP gets its IP?

Yeah I found that as well and that's why I knew about the information above. Do you know how I would go about plugging the AP directly into the firewall? That seems like a logical next step and would at least verify the setting on the firewall are all setup correctly. When plugging back into the network would the configuration still work?

Hello I am still dealing with this issue any help would be appreciated .

Thanks.

I figured it out. It was a pattern update that needed done. Once that was fully updated it started working. 

Thanks for the help!
