A site has 37 AP621 with an RFS6000 5.4.3.0-018R.
We must add a second controller for redundancy - high availability.
We need to know if an NX5500 can do this job , and if can adopt the existing AP621s.

Hi

There are a couple of issues here.

1 - to cluster two controllers the need to be the same model You can not cluster an RFS6000 and an NX5500

2 - 5.4.3 is extremely out of date. you will need to upgrade, but you be limited due to the AP models you have installed

3- AP621's are obsolete. Would recommend investigating upgrading to a newer model
