Yes, if one is set to RAP and the other to MAP and Ethernet bridging is enabled.

Dang your fast! LOL

You coming to networkers?

LWAPP APs must join a controller, and they do not support a repeater mode since they all have to have some connectivity to the controller first. Cisco autonomous APs can be configured as repeaters, but due to the reduction in effective bandwidth available to end clients, repeaters are not the most highly recommended configuration. While any Cisco Aironet AP or LAP model can be used in either LWAPP or autonomous mode, in order to make that change, a software reimage is required. This is particularly complex when it goes from autonomous to LWAPP, so directly, no, an AIR-LAP1232AG-A-K9 does not natively support the repeater mode. It could be loaded with autonomous software and be made to support repeater mode, but that would involve a software change and a separate configuration

Hi Mohd Marzuki,

 

Can AP1240 Series LWAPP do bridge with other AP1240 LWAPP
Workgroup bridge mode is only implemented on autonomous IOS APs, not on LWAPP APs
