Hi,

I have the below setup, there are two wlc's  one is  cisco the other one is  non-cisco, 

(core1 is in site A and core 2 is in site B)

is it possible a  seamless roaming experience?

what are the drawbacks of the below setup ?

What is the best solution?

Thanks

Seamless roaming is not possible with non-cisco wlc's.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here.  Look at the basics first:  Site A and Site B.  What is the distance between the two Sites?  

[bluesea2010]

The distance between Site A site B is only  550 meter .

it is connected with a fiber cable.  we can say site B is an extension of site A .but it is managed by differnt  group of people .

Thanks

Regarding the open space between Site A and Site B, is there WiFi coverage?

yes

So this answers the question of "seamless roaming".  Since there is a coverage gap between Site A and Site B, how is a wireless client expected to retain wireless connectivity when there is no wireless coverage? 
Therefore, the answer to the question is a "no".

Hi @Leo Laohoo 

Regarding the open space between Site A and Site B, is there WiFi coverage? , Yes

What I mean is there is no coverage gap  between site A site B 

from site

Ok, thanks for the clarification. 

Then dang.  That is an inter-controller roaming.
