Adding an additional SSID to WLAN

Rudy Lallemand

Level 1

We have a CISCO WLAN in place with several SSIDs including one on the Voice VLAN. We need to add an additional one using CCKM due to wireless phone roaming issues. Does adding a new SSID to the WLAN cause any outage whatsoever?   We are in an environment where even a small amount down time is not acceptable.

We are using two 5500 controllers with hundreds of LAP1142N

Thank you

No, adding a wlan to the controller will not cause any downtime.

Hi Rudy,

How many WLANs do you have? You should be aware anything more than 5 or so could be problematic if your wireless isn't deigned correctly.
