AP connectivity in SDA

riah — Fri, 01 Sep 2023 19:41:37 GMT

Migrating the switch in IDF to SDA , I have a question related to the AP connection to the Embedded WC at the BN.It has always been a problem to see the AP's back in the DNAC. Before that the AP's are connected to the standalone WLC 5500.

My question is

1. what the best practice is to make the SDA migration smooth.

Thank you.

look at Cisco live on demand library, there are some good presentations, Jerome Dolphin has a few good one specifically on migration best practices.

It's OTT we are using 5500.Although after following the process in the documentation , it takes quiet a while for the AP to connect (show up on border node)
