Cisco WLC 5520 - FlexConnect Groups

[vezeh]

I have a Cisco WLC 5520 on my network. From the documentation, the WLC can support up to 100 FlexConnect groups but I can only create 15 on mine.

Has anyone experienced this and is there a way this can be changed?

I've just tried this on one of our 5520s running 8.2.170.0 and I'm not limited to 15. What version of code are you running?

My software version is 8.5.140

From the release notes the 5520 can support 1500 Flexconnect groups with 100 APs in each.

Do you get an error when you try and create Flexconnect group number 16?

Have you tried creating via the CLI as sometimes the CLI give better error notifications:

config flexconnect group <Group name> add

Also what version of code are you running

I tried that this morning after resumption at work and the groups were created.

Thanks a lot for your help

Hi @vezeh

are u sure you´re having an issue creating the flexconnect group or you can not broadcast WLAN with ID below of 16? 

Be sure that your WLAN ID is greater than 16, can u plase share the error?

Thanks.

I actually did not take a screenshot of the error. I tried it again this morning following the suggestion from @Hayden Andrews and it worked both on CLI and GUI.

I am not sure as to why I received an error yesterday.
