Cisco 5508 Wireless Controller in HA mode

[richard.turian]

Hello,

is there a support of 1+1 mode (HA mode) at 5508 Controller?

If yes Is there a HA bundle or do we have to order two identical 5508 controller ?

Thanks for response.

Hi Richard,

HA is not yet supported yet for WLC.

Thanks

Is HA mode still not supported and if not is there a strategey for using High Availablity?

[Scott Fella]

Having another WLC is the only way to provide redundancy. Both WLC's will need to be able to support the total number of access points.

Hello cisco,

It is now October 2012, is HA supported for the Cisco 5508 WLC?  If not, what are other solutions for redundancy/failover?

Very Respectfully...

HA is supported in the 7.3 train of code.  This is AP SSO, and licensing inheritance.  No cleint SSO at this time.

HTH,
Steve
