    dear all,

    i found in Instant AP the item , Radius proxy, i have enderstand that is used  to proxy from different AP, so that  they will be sent  from the Virtual controlleur (with the cluster Address)

    i have two question:

    1. is it true ?!
    2. is it the best practice to use this method instead of the standard method  (configure each AP as a radius client ?:

    Regards

    Dynamic Radius Proxy is a best practice. Some radius servers have a limit to the number of radius clients that can be configured. Having Dynamic radius proxy reduces administration.

    Correct. It prevents you from having to add each AP as a RADIUS client.


    Thanks,

    Hello
    1. it is true, all Radius requests were sent by the virtual controller address
    2. it is a question of the configuration overhead (AP and Radius Server) and the functional safety with regard to bugs or something

    I would use the Radius Proxy to avoid configuration mistakes and a single point of configuration
