How many lightweight access points (LAPs) can the WLCs manage?
A. This depends on the model of the Cisco WLC. The Cisco 2000 Series supports up to six LAPs. This makes it ideal for small and medium-sized enterprise facilities, such as branch offices. The Cisco 4400 Series is available in these models:. • 4402—Includes two gigabit Ethernet ports and comes in configurations that support 12, 25 and 50 LAPs. • 4404—Includes four gigabit Ethernet ports and supports up to 100 LAPs. Note: The 4402 provides one expansion slot and the 4404 provides two expansion slots that can be used to add enhanced functionality. The 4400 WLC supports an optional redundant power supply to ensure maximum availability. This unique combination of capabilities makes the Cisco WLAN system uniquely suited for large-scale WLAN deployments. • Cisco 5500 series supports upto 250 Lightweight Access Points.
