Layer 3 Roaming

[mat.edwards]

Is there a way for a client on one autonomous AP in user vlan A to roam to second autonomous AP in user vlan B whilst retaining IP address without using WDS. So Mobile IP Layer 3 roaming possibly through the switch/router?

The two APs are connected to a 3560 which is connected to an 877. The vlans are layer 3 on the SVI of the 3560.

Hello Mat,

no, it's not possible without WDS. In fact, regular WDS doesn't support Layer 3 roaming, either. You need to do WDS with Cisco's 6500 WLSM module. WLSM was announced end of life in 2006.
