RFS7000 Multi-link trunk - load balance

RFS7000 Multi-link trunk - load balance

Hi

    We have two RFS7K - currently it is set to tunnel , so all wifi traffic comes back to the controller, is it possible to channel bond or create an MLT into the network stack so the throughput is increased

There is only one port connected on the RFS which is GE1

Hello Phil,


  Load balancing strategy depends on traffic profile. In case of single default gateway in particular VLAN - mac method should be relevant. The idea here is to keep a single flow path unchanged.
  Regarding balancing RFS units - please keep in mind that tunneled VLANs is anyway balanced in the cluster by default - i.e. half of VLANs are bridged on every cluster node (in your case). This apparently means that user traffic also tunneled between nodes to reach the target bridge  or DIS depending on there AP adoption tunnel landed (please see “sh mint dis detail”). This basically means that communication between nodes is also important and should be effectively organised. Like using  mentioned stack of switches.
  Stack is totally good as long as it appear as a single unit and support LACP

I assume you mean Wing Version ? 5.8.5

 

Just seeing if the throughput can be increased until such time as we move to the VX, 32 AP,s of which 2 are acting as a WIFI bridge between two buildings. then drop the tunnelled to locally bridged
