    We've been approached to see if we would be willing to broadcast an SSID on behalf on another party, and they have proposed installing a Cisco anchir controller so they can manage their traffic. 

     

    I dont know anything about Anchor controllers, so I suppose my first question is would this mixed vender scenario even work?

    You can only use Aruba APs with Aruba controllers.

     

    You could potentially create a GRE tunnel from an Instant AP cluster and send it through the Cisco controller.
