Solved: CISCO WIRELESS DTLS LICENSE

ciscodinhnhat · ‎10-30-2020

Dear Experts,

I have now 40 Access Points ( Indoor 3800 and OutDoor 1560) and 2x WLC 9800.

If I want to encrypt management CWAPP and data wireless traffic with DTLS between WLC and Access Points ( Indoor or Outdoor), how many DTLS license do I have to buy ?

Is it only 1 license will do or 40 licenses ?

Thank you

The CAPWAP control tunnel (UDP/5246) is always encrypted with DTLS on the 9800.
For the CAPWAP Data tunnel (UDP/5247) you need to enable it on the AP join profile(s) you are using (cf sreenshot below).
Regarding the license, you need one per controller (LIC-C9800-DTLS-K9) and it is free (0 $).
