Chapter 8 Controlling Mesh Access Points
Architecture Overview
• Number of MAPs per RAP
There is no current software limitation of how many MAPs per RAP you can configure. However,
it is suggested that you limit this to 20 MAPs per RAP.
• Number of controllers
–
The number of controllers per mobility group is limited to 72.
• Number of mesh access points supported per controller (see Table 8-3).

1. Number of MAPs supported on a mesh network is equal to the ((local AP support - number of RAPs) x 2). Local
AP support is the total number of non-mesh APs supported on the controller model.
2. For 2106 controllers, the mesh access point limit is equal to [(local AP support - 1) x 2) +1].
3. For 2112 and 2125 controllers, the number of MAPs = (Total number of local APs - number of RAPs).
