Cloud Managed Networks

Does license expiration nerf the LAN ports/LAN traffic on hospitality APs?  Some IP TVs stopped working after the AP license expired.

The closest thing I have been able to find is a thread referring to the Survivability tech document.  Unfortunately that doesn't talk about anything connected to the LAN port of the APs, whether the LAN ports lose configuration, or if they stop passing traffic.  Is anybody able to shed light to what happens to passthrough LAN traffic on the LAN ports of the APs?

Document I found:

If your license expires, you could expect anything. But in most cases all cloud functions could be expected to stop working, and configuration on the device to stay whatever it was before the license expired.

So it depends a bit what features are used on you AP's LAN ports. If it's just a trusted port in a VLAN, I would expect it to keep working; but if multicast replication is done, Airgroup (mDNS), there may be other challenges.

Long story short: don't let you licenses expire. Please work with your HPE Networking Partner or local HPE Team if they can do something for you pending the license renewal.

You would have to provide more info. There are differences when you use microbranch, campus AP's tunneled, or campus AP's that are bridged. 

In my experience yes and no. If you are using only campus AP's that are not participating in any overlay routing. Even if they are performing port security to on-prem solution. We have been fine when they are not connected to the cloud or license expires. In the case of microbranch AP's or tunneled solutions. Yes I have had issues at different times for different reasons. I have not even mentioned using cloud auth either. There are to many variables to assume what design you are using.
