The use of WLC tunnels is essential for a WLC cluster. The WLCs in the WLC cluster use this tunnel to communicate with one another and keep their status information aligned. With the feature extensions as of LCOS 9.00, the way that LCOS deals with WLC tunnels is also improved:
- WLCs are able to find one another automatically.
- You have the option to statically configure WLC tunnels.
- WLCs disconnect a WLC tunnel only after a timeout.
- WLC tunnels can be switched on or off globally.
The settings for the WLC tunnels and other WLCs (remote WLCs) are located in the section . The setting WLC tunnel active allows you to disable the usage of WLC tunnels, which in effect causes the clustering feature to be switched off.
