Autonomous or Work Group AP QoS

[ragulan_dms]

Hi ,

Based on Cisco Enterprise Mobility Design guide,  WLC/Lightweight AP support  DSCP trust (Trust DSCP Upstream) from the client and retain the original value when the packet encapsulated in CAPWAP. Similarly Is it possible to implement trust DSCP for for AAP/WGB upstream traffic and downstream traffic ? 

Thanks

The short answer is yes, Autonomous supports QoS mappings with 802.11e (WMM) upstream/downstream providing client can mark it on their side for upstream.

As always, Rasika has written an excellent article on this already. I don't know why the rest of us bother sometimes..
