Hey
I have a Question i am testing mobility group with
Failover for redundend connection between 2
Cisco 5500 Wlc.
On both the controllers i got the mobility working
And both the controllers have the same version
And configuration.
But when i unplug the main controller the access-
Points don't convers to the second one
The just keep on creaming can't find the main controller
Also with this thus the second wlc need to have the same
Interface ip address like managment..??
Thanks

Only the VIP and mobility name should be identical.

What do you mean by "convers". An AP will only join one wlc and when that primary wlc is no longer available, should failover to the other/secondary wlc. Mobility is required for an AP to know about all the other APs in that mobility group. And if not configured correct, your AP will only be able to join that wlc.

There is a timer on the failover, but you really don't want to adjust that any faster. If your primary is bouncing, it will cause more of an issue. Anyways, a hard failure will always cause an interruption for the clients and that you can't change.
