Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers smoothly integrate into existing enterprise networks. They communicate with Cisco 1000 Series Lightweight access Points over any Layer 2 (Ethernet) or Layer 3 (IP) infrastructure using the Lightweight access Point Protocol (LWAPP). These devices support automation of numerous WLAN configuration and management functions across all enterprise locations.
The Cisco 2000 Series Wireless LAN Controller supports up to six lightweight access points, making it ideal for small to medium sized enterprise facilities, such as branch offices.
