Hello,
I want to know, even if the 2104 is EOS, if I can use it as a Guest Anchor with 5500 WLC ?
I guess it can works but not supported. Is it right ?
Do I need to run the same release for both 2104 and 5500 WLC to make it work ?
Thank you.

No sir, the 2106 never supported being the anchor for a Guest WLAN. It was actually a feature added to the 2504 in 7.4 code.

So do you mean the 2106 or the 2504?
the 2106 is EOL/EOS

the 2504 is still valid, and can be used as a Guest Anchor. Just be aware of the 500 user limitation, and the throughput limitation of 500Mbps per port, so only a 2G if you LAG all ports.

No worries. See my previous post for the answer.

Ok so :
- 2504 it works for up to 500 users.
- 2106 it's not supported because of the EOL/EOS.
So I have too more questions :
- Does it work with 2106 even if it is not supported for Cisco ?
- Does it need any additionnal license ?
Thanks you.

Can you confirm that the 2106 can initiate tunnel to a Guest Anchor WLC ?
Thanks.
