I was considering using the Cisco vWLC to replace some 5508's that are doing n+1 HA redundancy, however, it seems this controller only supports Flexconnect local switching.  So if I have distributed Cisco WLC's with AP's operating in local mode, failing to the vWLC would not work correct? ...

We have a location that has 3802 AP's, on a 5520 WLC operating on 8.2.170 code.  The WLAN they are connecting to currently is configured for both WPA-1(tkip) and WPA-2(aes)  We are moving away from having both encryption protocols enabled, but currently this is the configuration.  The Win10 clients have two GPO wireless profiles, 1 for WPA-1 and the other for WPA-2.  The WPA-2 profile is preferred.  We are moving away from this, and will be removing the WPA-1 GPO profile from these machines.  However, we have started seeing issues where clients will connect and prefer the WPA-1 profile, and will show connected 802.11a on 5GHZ.  When attempting to connect to WPA-2, these clients would connect, but some could not pass traffic, or others would bounce back to WPA-1.  Has anyone experience this issue? ...

We are testing a 5520 WLC on 8.2.141 code and we use ISE for Guest and BYOD.  For our BYOD SSID doing 802.1X PEAP, authentications are working correctly with no issues.  On the Guest WLAN, we are immediately getting unable to join the SSID when attempting to connect.  The WLAN is configured exactly like our 5508 on 8.0 code.  We have Mac-Filtering enabled for ISE, and our ACL for redirect to ISE is setup the same as well.  Under radius auth, we do have support for CoA enabled.  Has anyone ran into any issues similar to this with ISE and WLC 8.2 code? ...

I am looking for a way for an external group to have access to a portal or some automated way to add mac addresses to a mac-filter database either on the WLC, Prime, or even using ISE.  So using the portal or a method, the user would be able to register a device, and put the MAC Address in and then the device would be off and running.  Is there a way to use a template in Prime, or have a limited access to the WLC to be able to register a mac-address to gain access to a WLAN? ...
