vWLC with AP with NAT/PAT and AP L3VPN

I received question from my customer about deployment of vWLC. We just won RFP with this customer with vWLC and now going to design phase for deployment

 

They are asking about to use two AP manager interfaces with vWLC where:

  1. 1 AP manager interface is using public IP
  2. 1 AP manager interface is using private AP

 

Use case is they want to have some AP with public IP (under NAT/PAT) and some AP using L3VPN/private IP

 

Is this something possible to do with vWLC?

 

Other option for the above use case is to use NAT 1 to 1 for management interface or AP manager interface. With this can we achieve the use case above?

 

Thanks

with the vWLC you can only have a single AP manager per vWLC its the same as when you enable LAG on a WLC

Ok. So I can't have two ap-managers interface to support customer use cases

 

If I use NAT 1 to 1 for WLC management/ap-manager interface, can I achieve the goal to have vWLC supporting AP with PAT/public IP via WLC's NAT public IP and AP with private IP via WLC internal private management IP address?

 

Thanks
