Wlc to branch offices

billybong · ‎02-19-2020

Hi All, could some one point me the right direction

We have purchased a WLC5508 to go into our datacentre, our hope to control all the ap's at the branch offices

All the offices are linked to the datacentre on a MPLS circuit the issue is the branches have different vlan IDs do i need to make all the vlans the same ?

I can only make a remark on the point above which is unfortunate because the 5508 is really getting to End-of-Life these days. Contact your reseller or Cisco to negotiate an alternative.

Thanks but at this stage we are testing the concept so its a cheap alternative, the real question is about the vlans at the branch sites

Read into Flexconnect, depending on the link latency to your branches, this is the only solution.
