Dynamic VLAN assignment on Mobility Anchor

Wes Schochet — Mon, 08 Sep 2025 17:13:45 GMT

Hi all-

Before I went too far down this rabbit hole, I thought I'd see if anyone else has done this. I am using ISE and 9800 WLCs in my DMZ. Is it possible for me to specify the VLAN on the anchor side of the mobility tunnel? Do I have to somehow make sure that it doesn't get assigned on the foriegn side as well?

Thanks,

Wes

The dynamic VLAN assignment is applied on the anchor WLC. The anchor receives the updated client state and attributes from the foreign WLC, then places the client's tunneled traffic into the specified VLAN, the VLAN IDs don't need to match between foreign and anchor (only the anchor's VLAN matters for enforcement).
