WatchGuard AP325 Hardware Guide
WatchGuard AP325 devices are intended for low to medium density environments and feature 2x2 MU-
MIMO with dual concurrent 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz radios supporting 802.11a/n/ac Wave 2, 802.11b/g/n, two
spatial streams, and data rates of up to 876 Mbps and 300 Mbps, respectively. The AP325 also contains a
third 2x2 MIMO 802.11ac radio for dedicated multi-function security and wireless network scanning (Wi-Fi
Cloud mode only).
Requirements
There are two ways you can manage your AP325:
Total Wi-Fi and Secure Wi-Fi with WatchGuard Wi-Fi Cloud
A powerful cloud-based enterprise wireless management solution for AP configuration, security, and
monitoring.
Basic Wi-Fi with WatchGuard Firebox Gateway Wireless Controller
Local management, configuration, security, and monitoring of APs directly from your WatchGuard
Firebox. The WatchGuard Firebox requires Fireware v12.1 and higher.
The third radio is not available when you manage the AP325 locally with a Gateway
Wireless Controller.
