Roaming Between AP Groups

Hello Dears,

I've a question, and appreciate your support.

If we roam from AP group 1 to AP group 2 and had to re-associate then would we receive an IP address from AP Group 2? if yes, how could that be performed? wouldn't that go against L3 roaming feature and causing a change in the client IP? what may be the use cases for demanding roaming between AP Groups?

More Explanation:

Is the below scenario applicable?

wlc-1: - wlan profile name:test1

ssid: test -- wlan id: 50

wlan profile name: test2

ssid: test -- wlan id: 51

AP-Group-1

Wlan id: 50 - Vlan 10

AP-Group-2

Wlan id: 51 - Vlan 20

assume the client is connected first on an AP in AP-GROUP1, When the client moves to an AP in AP-GROUP2, the IP of the client will change and it will be a new association to WLAN ID:51?

No, client won't get IP address from AP Group 2.

In roaming simple principle is client keep same IP, If client has to get a new IP address, that break the existing session and no roaming there.
