Meru Wireless- VLAN Setup

[Speedydowt]

Hi everyone!

 

We have a Meru MC3200 at our school and was wondering what the best practice is regarding VLANs.

 

We currently have a VLAN tunnel setup on the controller that puts anyone connecting to a particular SSID into that vlan. However all of our APS and controller are still on the "main" data vlan.

 

Is it best practice to put both the APs and Controllers onto a seperate VLAN as well? Our Network is mid sized comprising of around 40aps, 300Pcs and 100 laptops. Typical wireless usuage is around 100-150 clients daily.

 

My apologies if I have missed off some cruicial information! and many thanks for your help

 

Many thanks

 

Tom

'best practice? Yes. Necessary? it depends, but in your scenario probably not.

Cool, fair enough- I guess I wanted to find an excuse to do it

It's on my list of things to do too. Some way below the cut of things that are actually going to get done this summer.
