We have a rf-domain with 78 AP's. Right now that rf domain is controller managed. We would like to give it a vlan for control traffic where in our case it would be 1 since the AP's interface is vlan 1.
I heard that the max amount of AP's you can have in a rf domain and have a control vlan is 64. Is it possible to have both controller managed and a control vlan at the same time ? We tried that before and got reports that clients could not connect ( rf guns).
The answer is that it depends on the model of APs being used. With most recent AP models, that limit was raised to 128. And even more recently, if using the higher end model APs, the limit was raised again to 256.
