Summary
This implementation guide covered the steps necessary to build a cluster both in a Layer 2 & Layer 3 Topology. It showed
APs will fail over to the member controller in the event one WLAN controller fails. The key reasons that a cluster should be
built include:
•
Access Point Failover
•
License Aggregation
•
DHCP Redundancy
•
Configuration Synchronization
Clustering in the WM3000 Series Controller (SW v5.1) allows the network administrator to establish redundancy and
resiliency for their WLAN.
