Roaming Status " Associated(Remote) " when in bridge mode

  • 1.  Roaming Status " Associated(Remote) " when in bridge mode

    Posted Nov 30, 2011 10:15 AM

    I have a SSID in bridge mode working. But now I see the Roaming Status for the user is "Associated(Remote)". I can't find in the OS guide what this means. 

     

    I am running 5.0.3.2 code on AP 125.

     

    Does anyone know what Associated(Remote) mean? The other clients in tunneled mode are in a " wireless " roaming status.

     

    Thanks

    It means that the user is associated to a non-tunnled SSID.  This could be a bridged or split tunneled SSID on a CAP or a RAP.   Since the user is associated to an SSID that doesn't tunnel all the traffic back to the controller, the AP has to handle the datapath for the user.
