Foreign & Anchor WLC 5800 ver: 8.2.166.0
We have SSID for guests, 'visitors_HQ' that is centrally switch and egress from HQ with webauth enable. This SSID is tied to WLC interface 'inf_guest' on Foreign and Anchor controllers.
We also have 'employee' SSID that is set as Flexconnect and it locally switch at the remote offices. This SSID is tied to WLC interface 'inf_employee' with dummy IP of 192.168.x.x with Vlan ID which i think is also dummy may be.
I want to add new visitors SSID 'visitors_Local' as FlexConnect and webauth so guest traffic can egress locally from remote office internet circuit instead of coming all the way to HQ. No configs changes required for this on Anchors I believe.
Question, when creating the new FlexConn SSID 'visitors_Local' Can I use the exiting interface 'inf_employee' or do I need to configure separate interface for this new SSID?
Thanks

Yes, you can use same interface.
Since it is FlexConnect Local Switching, no impact on what interface you select on WLC, hence go with dummy interface.
