Thanks for your info. I'm not sure whether I'm using Fat or Fit mode. Which firmware version should I use?(Fit, Fat, or the one with only version no.)?

Hi,

You can find the comparison between FIT AP and FAT AP below. Basically, FIT  APs are managed by an AC, but on the contrary, a fat AP is managed by itself. In principle, these are  2 different types of software that can be installed on the hardware (AP)

I'm using the AC6508 to manage/config all APs, and couldn't access directly to the AP. Is that mean it is a Fit AP?

When you take the device out of the box, it originally comes in Fit mode. dir if there is a controller in the environment
attachment tries to connect to it (service vlan).
But in order to switch to Fat mode, you need to make some changes in the AP. You can also see the mode in which it works by connecting with the Console cable.

Hope it can h
