I've got a catalyst c9800 WLC and I was trying to manage it over the wireless network and can't. I can't find where to enable this or if it's something that has to be done via CLI or what. Most of my APs are in Flex-connect mode as well.
It's running Cisco IOS XE Software, Version 17.03.04c.
Where do I go or what do I do to enable management via wireless?
Thanks!

Found the answer on another thread. Not really in an intuitive spot.
Configuration > Wireless > Wireless Global > enable Management via Wireless........ You'd think it'd be under Administration > Management.....

FYI Cisco best practice is to disable management over wireless.
You can still access the WLC via a WIFI connection if your connected to a VPN segment that allows access to the WLC

Thank you. I'm aware of that it's not recommended. Most of my deployment is flex-connect APs with local switching and ACL's on those switches prevent traffic from the VLANs/SSIDs to the WLC. The WLAN I'm accessing the WLC from is pretty secure, with 802.1x authentication. I feel it's fairly secure.
