I have in HQ internal WC and guest (anchor) WC.

Users in HQ can access internal network and internet via wireless network using 2 SSID

Is it possible to install one AP in a branch and connect the AP to the controller in HQ. then users in branch can access internet using the internet link in HQ.

Note: Connection between HQ and branch is MPLS via local SP.

What controller do you have an what version is it running?

Also, what model access point?

FlexConnect will allow you to do this easily.

controller 5508 with ver 7.4.140.0

ap model is AIR-CAP2602I-E-K9   .

1-i noted that in flexconnect mode the wireless traffic will have as source address the AP IP and not the client IP. is this normal?

2-using flexconnect mode when the client request reach the MPLS cloud it will not be routed because the destination addresses are not known to the cloud. and i dont have internet in the branch.

shall i configure a tunnel to send it the HQ then to internet ?

thanks
