I have to replace an old wireless network with a new Aruba controller-based network. The existing network deploys multiple Guest VLANs, shared across two Internet bearers. That's fine in the existing setup: each VLAN is associated with only one internet connections, so IP addresses remain constant and such things as https and vpns work fine.
I need both bearers to carry the total traffic, and current best practice says to use only one Guest VLAN.
If I do that, the Guest VLAN must have access to the Internet via to two different bearers, with different subnet addresses (so I have enough bandwidth).
Now the problem: If the first packet from a wireless guest is routed through bearer "1", then the second is routed through on bearer "2", https and vpns will be broken because the addresses will change. (Oversimplification, I know, but I'm trying to keep it simple).
What I really need to do is arrange it so that when a device (identified by MAC address) associates with the network, any traffic from that device is always sent via the same bearer. That way, addresses stay constant and everything works.
Question is: can I do that in ArubaOS8.x and if so, how. If not, is there a recognised way around the issue.
Thanks for any advice
Jim
