Management Functionality on an anchor controller.

VAN HEINS

What type of management functionality is available on an anchor controller? We have an entity that is currently riding our on wireless controller. They would like more visibility and possible management access. Would introducing an anchor controller provide this entity with the ability to view connection information and possibly change configuration for a WLAN/SSID assigned to them?

Yea the anchor has full function access like a foreign controller. If you wanted to add an anchor they could change things but those same changes would need to be placed on the inside (foreign controller). When you anchor the wlans need to match on both anchor and foreign so they would need access to both. 

Another way you can drop the network interface on an controller and let them have full access to it ..
