Dedicated vlans for vrrp?

  • 1.  Dedicated vlans for vrrp?

    Posted Feb 20, 2014 09:16 AM

    I am confiuguring VRRP for AP failover between 4 controllers (master/local/local/local) and wonderd if I should be using a dedicated vlan or could I simply use an address from an existing user vlan?  

     

    We have a layer2 managment vlan for the controllers, and 8 vlans for wifi clients.  Could I use one or several of these vlans for vrrp, or would it be best practice to have each vrrp instance on its own dedicated vlan?

     

    Thanks.

    You should use the same management VLAN you already have dedicated for the controllers.

    Thanks.. so therefore, if I have multiple vrrp instances due to spreading the ap groups across the controllers, I should have them on their rown vlans?
