Extend vlan across ethernet-AP's and WLC communication

[Vlad Olteanu]

Hi guys,

I am sure this was previously discussed , but I would really appreciate some help.

We have got two sites connected with ethernet links attached to cisco routers , running OSPF.Recently we have aquired APs fro wifi in both building , but we only bought one WLC, which puts me in the unpleasing situation of having to extend a vlan for the APs to speak to the WLC.

How can I do it without technologies like MPLS and others ?

Thanks,

Hello, you do not need to extend your vlan. Use DHCP option 43 to help the AP know where the WLC is
