    I have two vlans on Aruba controller i.e. 101 and 102. I know controller does the load balancing/polling by sending request possibly to different vlan each time. If I want to assign a static lease to a system for which I have already made a static lease reservation on our dhcp but still if request goes from different vlan it gets IP from that spefici IP pool.

    Suppose I have a static lease on vlan 101 IP Pool but if request is forwarded using vlan 102 through controller then client gets an IP from vlan 102 IP pool.

    Would you please guide me how I can assign static IP to wireless client so that each time it gets a static lease reserved IP from DHCP?

    Make it one big VLAN, is the only way.

    Sad, yes, but anything else might be too much trouble.  You could:

     

    - Create a WLAN that is broadcast on a single access point for that client and you can decide what VLAN the client gets on (for like a printer).

    - Have your radius server look for that device's mac address and return an Aruba VSA that has the VLAN you want the device in (if your radius server supports that)
