Configuring L3-Mobility
To configure a mobility domain, you have to specify the list of all SCALANCE W networks
that form the mobility domain. To allow clients to roam seamlessly among all the APs,
specify the VC IP for each foreign subnet. You may include the local SCALANCE W or VC IP
address, so that the same configuration can be used across all SCALANCE W networks in
the mobility domain.
It is recommended that you configure all client subnets in the mobility domain. When the
client subnets are configured, note the following scenarios:
● If a client is from a local subnet, it is identified as a local client. When a local client starts
using the IP address, L3 roaming is terminated.
● If the client is from a foreign subnet, it is identified as a foreign client. When a foreign
client starts using the IP address, L3 roaming is set up.
Home Agent Load Balancing
Home Agent Load Balancing is required in large networks where multiple tunnels might
terminate on a single border or lobby AP and overload it. When load balancing is enabled,
the VC assigns the home AP for roamed clients by applying a
round robin policy. With this
policy, the load for the APs acting as Home Agents for roamed clients is uniformly distributed
across the AP cluster.
