A method and system for an access point assisted active roam scanning includes first and second access points, a switch and a client device. The switch communicates with the first and second access points that operate in a communication network, each access point having a respective operating area. The client device, within the first operating area, includes a wireless transceiver broadcasting first and second probe requests to the first and second access points, respectively, the second probe request being broadcast without receiving a probe response to the first probe request. The first and second access points generate first and second probe responses in response to receiving the first and second probe requests. The switch receives the first and second probe responses and generates a consolidated probe response as a function of the first and second probe responses.
