Cisco 3504 Wireless LAN Controller With Huawei AirEngine576051

[Bhardwajp]

Hi All,

We have Cisco 3504 Wireless LAN Controller in our network with CAP1702 and AP1832.

Now we want to add few Huawei AP (AirEngine576051) in our environment im not sure if we can run Huawei AP with Cisco WLC.

Thanks in advance

You should not mix different vendor wireless equipment in the same environment.  The two will never communicate or share info which you would need for channel and power negotiation and or client device roaming just to name a few.  Now if your Huawei AP's will have a different SSID, then that would work better for client roaming (will not break), but you will still introduce more CCI in your environment. 

Having to troubleshoot multiple vendor wireless systems in the same environment would be a pain also.
