Is IP used in CAPWAP solely to justify it being defined in the IETF? CAPWAP is all about scaling! Enterprise networks follow the recommended distribution/core network architecture proposed by Cisco. This means that networks have a greater number of smaller subnets Using a layers 2 protocol between the AP and the AR means: A greater number of ARs per network (one per subnet), or Extending VLANs to create the perception of a larger subnet IT managers have spoken. They want to have fewer ARs, centralized in their core network. So L3 is necessary. |
