WGB & light weight Access Point

Hello Experts,

Need your suggestion, though I have gone through some documents the solution does not work as per my requirement as below. Still to confirm.

I wants to use LAP in flex connect mode & standalone access Point to act as WGB. However, as my standalone AP is dual band I want to use 5GHZ for backbone & 2.4 GHZ for my wireless users can it be possible?

Or, over the same backbone can I pass multiple VLAN traffics ? as I, have read it as client after configuring the WGB in standalone so, it should not work !!!

Thanks in advance!!

When you configure an AP as a WGB, only one radio is operational, and you need to check the feature matrix to make sure what you want to do will work in FlexConnect, as well as the configuration guide for the WLC code you are running

7.4 as an example:

Yes, you can configure the 5Ghz to handle your "backhaul" if you will from WGB to FlexConnect LAP. Just make sure that only 5GHz has the "station-role workgroup-bridge" configured. 2.4GHz radio will keep the station-role root, for your client access.

The second question; multiple VLANs. Customer facing documentation is conflicting, but newer documentation shows this should work.

On the WLC, make sure you enable WGB Vlan support

>config wgb vlan enable

On the WGB you will need to make sure you have the SSID setup with

# workgroup-bridge unified-vlan-client

and then make sure you have all your applicable sub-interfaces on radio and Ethernet.
