Does this solution below work with the NX5500 controller ?

The commands shown in that article are simply the configurations that are needed by the APs so that they operate as a DHCP client.

So yes, if you have configured DHCP Option 191 on your DHCP server, then you need to ensure that the APs have this configuration as part of their profile.

But, this won’t help if the APs have never adopted to the controller. But...when APs are new ‘out of box’, they already have this exact configuration on them so all that is needed to to setup DHCP Option 191 on the DHCP server.

I am using the 191 dhcp option so should i copy and paste this in to the controller ? T

Yes, if you are referring to the use of DHCP Option 191.

This option will allow the APs to learn the address of the WiNG controller as part of the DHCP lease and doesn’t really have anything to do with controller compatibility.
