Disappointed with AeroHive
-
I have a Unifi AC on the way to me now!!!! Guess I'll off load these on ebay. Thanks to the supplier who wishes to remain nameless who decided to send me a new unit from Ubiquiti to they have better service than Aerohive. The Power of posting a ML post on Twitter haha.

You're confusing the control plane (controller) with the management plane (NMS) . They are entirely separate functional roles.
You can fully configure Aerohive's APs via CLI: Console, SSH or Telnet. This has never been removed.
What was removed early on was the ability to perform a simple configuration through graphical means in a Web browser.
HiveUI only covered a limited subset of the features the APs offer.HiveManager is Aerohive's NMS that is used to configure and monitor the APs. You pay for that on an ongoing basis.
One AP doesn't act as a controller, is is implemented via distributed protocols.
The datasheet is, as far as I can see, accurate.

@nick_lowe actually aerohive even admitted they hadn't updated the information since they removed AeroHive HiveOS 3.x with HiveUI. Which is what had the features I was referring to. It allowed you to manage all other APs on the network without independent management system. This is one of the other documents they had on there website but have since removed http://www.docdroid.net/vtpx/hiveap100series.pdf.html

@thecreativeone91 Oh come on, you've just trawled around and found an obsolete document from many years ago, it even has Aerohive's old logo. The data sheets for the AP110s and AP120s were actually updated a good while back. The one for the AP120 is here: http://www.aerohive.com/pdfs/Aerohive-Datasheet-AP120.pdf

That sheet was linked to on their website. End users aren't suppose to have to just whether a sites content is obsolete or not.

Welcome to the community @nick_lowe are you from Aerohive by chance?
-
@Minion-Queen Hello! No, I'm not from Aerohive.
-
Well glad to have you! You just know a bit so it made me wonder
-
@thecreativeone91 On a more productive and constructive note, if you drop me an email nick.lowe [at] gmail.com, I'll help you get these working.
