  • B. A CAPWAP tunnel is created between controller A and controller B
  • C. Client 1 uses an EoIP tunnel to contact controller A

A - this question seems client based to me, and although the database entry does not 'move' between controllers in a sense of ownership, the entry is copied from anchor to foreign. B - If two 9800 WLCs are in use, CAPWAP or Secure Mobility should be formed already C - the client does not use EOIP, two Aire0S controllers would form an EOIP tunnel D - same as above really

The client remains anchored to the original controller (Controller A) Even though Client 1 is now connected to AP 2 (which belongs to Controller B), it still maintains its session with Controller A. An EoIP (Ethernet over IP) tunnel is established between Controller A and Controller B Controller A remains the anchor and Controller B acts as the foreign controller. Traffic from the client is tunneled via EoIP from Controller B to Controller A, ensuring seamless roaming.

It's B , Ignore my previous answer , my only problem is that from Cisco course ENCOR that i've bought , I have stated clearly that it's EoIP but i know that is a mistake from their part. It's CAPWAP, because i know EoIP it's not even Cisco proprietary but in their course they keeping shoving EoIP tunnels in your head. Last Answer B, Cisco does not Use EoIP this is MikroTik proprietary.

No CAPWAP in this case , same WLAN, same subnet , same IP, DB entry moved and AP field gets updated with new AP, there is no need for CAPWAP because no mobility tunnel is required

keep on reading , i'll help you with the WLAN , same WLAN means same SSID , you can only do roaming without losing connection in the same WLAN. IF you use different WLAN (SSID) you need other authentication with other credentials .

Megon 1 week, 5 days ago well, new CAPWAP tunnel is established as the old WLC will be anchor and new WLC will be foreign and by this roaming is seamless and the end device keeps its IPs and all traffic will be sent back to the anchor WLC

If it is in the same VLAN it does not have to anchor the AP so it will just transfer the database. If the controller doesn't share the same VLAN that is when it has to anchor to place the client on their original VLAN to avoid changing IP and dropping connection.

Sir please read the question same WLAN not VLAN =)) Same Wireless Local Area Network not Virtual LAN. happens to the best of us sometimes.

Selected Answer: A
This is called Inter Controller-L2 Roaming. Inter-Controller (normally layer 2) roaming occurs when a client roam between two APs registered to two different controllers, where each controller has an interface in the client subnet. In this instance, controllers exchange mobility control messages (over UDP port 16666) and the client database entry is moved from the original controller to the new controller.

B. A CAPWAP tunnel is created between controller A and controller B. When a client roams between access points that are registered to different controllers in the same WLAN, a CAPWAP (Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Points) tunnel is established between the controllers to allow for seamless roaming. This allows the client to maintain its connection without interruption as it moves between APs, and allows the controllers to keep track of the client's location and status in the network.

I could be wrong, but I think the CAPWAP tunnel has already been established before, because the controllers are in the same mobility group. It's not a result of a client roaming to a different controller. But it does cause the client database entry to move.

I think you're correct, CAPWAP tunnels are established between members of the same mobility group as they share the context and state of client devices with a list of their access points so that they do not consider each other’s access points as rogue devices. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/7-3/configuration/guide/b_cg73/b_wlc-cg_chapter_01111.html#:~:text=Controllers%20in%20the%20same%20mobility%20group%20can%20share%20the%20context%20and%20state%20of%20client%20devices%20as%20well%20as%20their%20list%20of%20access%20points%20so%20that%20they%20do%20not%20consider%20each%20other%E2%80%99s%20access%20points%20as%20rogue%20devices.
