You need to use WLC Controller here. WCS ended More than a decade now.

- You may consider cisco Prime instead , is more modern and or does no longer depend on the Flash requirements.

The replacement of WCS is Cisco Prime Infrastructure.

PI is going to be replaced with the super-expensive DNA Centre (if-and-when the BU can get the stability addressed).

DNA Centre is aimed primarily at very large organization with money to spend. There are two major components that makes DNAC is unaffordable:

Price of the hardware
Price of the subscription license

On the other hand, Cisco is giving away free DNAC (DN2-HW-APL) for FREE.
