Does the gateway also function as a router or does it only manage the WLAN APs?

The Ubiquiti Cloud Gateway Ultra acts as both a gateway and a router. Here are the relevant details:
- It manages more than 30 UniFi network devices and over 300 client devices. - It provides full network management through the UniFi Network System, including routing, IDS/IPS and multi-WAN load balancing. - It has four Gigabit Ethernet ports for connecting network devices and a 2.5 GbE Ethernet WAN port for connecting to the modem.
In your scenario (FTTH -> modem -> gateway -> switch -> APs and LAN devices), the Cloud Gateway Ultra can assume the role of the router and simultaneously manage the WLAN access points (APs) and other network devices.
