L3/ IP Discovery
You can configure up to 256 IP addresses in the wireless controller for potential peer controllers and APs. The
wireless controller sends association invitations to all IP addresses in this list. If the device accepts the invitation
and is successfully validated by the controller, the controller and the AP or peer wireless controller are associated.
This discovery method mechanism is useful for peer wireless controller discovery and AP discovery when the
devices are in different IP subnets. In fact, for a wireless controller to recognize a peer that is not on the same
subnet, you must configure the IP addresses of each controller in the peer’s L3 discovery list.
