Network Topology with WL Controllers
WL Controllers can connect the following number of WL Access Points through
the network, depending on the controller type.
l
WL5100 is capable of connecting 12 APs.
l
SCA-WL10 is capable of connecting up to four APs.
l
WL1700-MS is capable of connecting up to four APs (including an internal
AP functionality in itself).
When operating with Layer 2 (data link) mode, a WL Controller and the
associated WL Access Points must be located in the same segment (subnet).
When operating with Layer 3 (network) mode, a WL Controller and the
associated WL Access Points are not necessary to place in the same segment
(subnet). For more information on those modes, refer to
The following is an example of network using a WL Controller and WL Access
Points.
