Controller teaming
Failover
8-23
Where:
APs is the total number of APs you want to deploy. You must buy one license for each
controlled AP. Although licenses are installed on individual team members, licenses are
pooled across the entire team and are automatically re-allocated when a team member
becomes inoperative.
Redundancy_level: This is the number of redundant controllers that you want to support:
1, 2, or 3.
For example:
Another way to look at it is as follows:
Note A team supports a maximum of 800 APs and 5 team members.
