Clean Air - WLC 5508

[saquib.tandel]

Hello

Do I need to buy additional license for clean air to work, currently my BOQ cover

• WLC 5508 with 50 AP license  ( part no : AIR-CT5508-50-K9 )
• 20 AP ( model 3502  )
• Redundant Power supply
• LIC-CT5508-50  ( is this required to be mentioned )

Also I would like to understand are there any better model than AP 3502 & newer WLC model than 5508 ( I would have application users accessing application via Wireless LAN )

thanks

No license required. Just depends on the AP's that you already know.

Thank you Scott for the guide will have a look at that.

5500 series WLC got 8SFP uplinks hence;-

• Can we Group 2 or more SFP for a specific SSID only configured on WLC and other SSID to route traffic from other uplink ports
  
  
• Uplinks from WLC to Core are generally configured for failover or link aggregation
  
  
• On WLC there are 5 SSID configured for example , the AP installed in HR room should broadcast only ONE SSID ( is this possible )
  
  

thanks

Well for one, you either use LAG or you don't. If you don't then it's up to you how you want to use the primary port and backup port.

If you want to broadcast specific SSID's on certain APs then you need to use AP Groups.
