One WLAN, multiple domains

[rockwoodclinic]

We have designed our network so that each site (22 sites with a total of 90+ aps)has its own wifi vlan. That means each has a unique DHCP scope.

Do we have to create 22 different wlans (which we know we can only do 16/wlc)? Obviously we would want to create one wlan that can pass through 22 different domains. Any suggestions?

Hi,

The solution is to use the 'AP-Groups Vlan' feature (assuming you have an LWAPP infrastructure). The feature is also called 'site-specific vlans'. The purpose is to allow creation of a single WLAN and then bind it to multiple dynamic interfaces (i.e. vlans).

The following URL covers the feature and provides a sample configuration:

You have 22 sites and each site has its own wifi vlan. Why would would want to pass 22 different vlans to that wifi unless all the buildings are in a campus area? Maybe I'm missing the point?
