Hello-

I was wondering what protocol(s) Zyxel wireless access points use for user traffic and management traffic? Is it GRE or something else? Thanks,

Matt

Hi MLBTech,
The protocols Zyxel wireless access points use:
+ For AP management traffic:
Nebula cloud managed: NETCONF
Controller-managed: CAPWAP
In case AP is in the Standalone mode, we use HTTP/ HTTPS to access to AP.
+ For User traffic: TCP/IP
