Remote AP Deployment

Network structure:

1. two WLC(primary and failover), located in HQ(local)

2. fit APs for HQ(local) and branch offices(remote)

3. windows DHCP server is only located in HQ(local), each office has separate WLAN IP address pool(achieve with superscope)

4. configure "IP Helper-Address" on remote AP's switch to communicate with DHCP server

5. the WAN use MPLS

We have successfully implement the WLAN for HQ(local) but face problem for branch offices(remote):

1. if we used the same WLAN profile(same interface associated with HQ's IP), the branch offices users will share HQ's IP address pool(not use remote IP)

2. if we created new WLAN profile(new interface associated with branch office's IP), we have to rename the SSID and both local and remote SSID will work in HQ. That means four branch offices will create four new SSID and there will be five differnet SSIDs will work in HQ. It's so terrible!

We want to achieve that all branch offices use the same SSID but separated IP address pool for remote WLAN users and fit APs. Please help provide the solution. Thanks.

please take a look at the below link. It is the HREAP design and deployment guide. This should be what you are looking for WRT your remote sites.
