How does WLC prevent layer 2 loops between mesh and different wired networks

hi all,
i have a question in regards to layer 2 loops. in my network i have clients devices moving between 2 separated mesh networks. from WLC prespective, the mac addresses should've moved between multiple bridge group and wired network.
can someone please enlighten me how WLC prevent layer 2 loops?
i understand spanning tree in the wired network, but WLC is not using SPT in mesh
thank you

Thanks for your help! This really helps a lot! We actually only want to replace the autonmous access point with the controller solution and make one WLAN available at another site. From what I can see, this is possible with our current solution - we just need to switch from Layer 2 to Layer 3 and purchase the corresponding amount of supported Access Points (I think we should be able to get some refurbished ones).
Am I correct in assuming that the Access Points we want to replace (AIR-AP1230B-E-K9 with 802.11b radio only) cannot be upgraded to lightweight ones? Since if I understood document http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/conversion/lwapp/upgrade/guide/lwapnote.html correctly, this is not possible with access points that only have 802.11b radios.
Regarding the switch from Layer 2 to Layer 3: Do we really only need to perform the steps I described in my first post?
And one last question regarding REAP. As far as I understood this is only needed when local traffic needs to be maintained in case the connection to the WLC becomes unavailable. So we really don't need it if we want to access resources that are only available over the WLC?
Thanks again for your help!
Michael

    That's how it's supposed to work, you can't stop it. If this isn't what you want you should get yourself a POP based email account.

  • How does the communication will happened between SOA-Composer(where DVM file resides) and EM console (Where composite resides)?

    How does the communication will happened between SOA-Composer(where DVM file resides) and EM console (Where composite resides)?
    And also i would like to how A business rule(Which will be resides in SOA_COMPOSER) will be communicated to Soa Composite(Resides in EM Console)?

    whenever you deploy a new composite it gets stored in the MDS data
    store, i.e. the metadata service and not the dehydration store (the
    SOAINFRA database).
    Composer works directly with the MDS schema.
    EM reads the same schema (MDS) to see what composite are deployed on the
    partitions.
    All runtime instance data is stored in the SOAINFRA database.
    Hope this helps,

  • How does the URL of DataSocket constitute?And how to use it in LabWindows/CVI ?

    Hi !
    There's a problem puzzled me some days.How does the URL of DataSocket constitute ? And how to use it in LabWindow/CVI ?
    For example.I have downloaded a code in http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/3787.I want to make it work properly.So I configure my DataSocket Server Manger according to the URL of this statement.
    DS_Open ("dstp://weather.natinst.com/weather/current",
    DSConst_ReadAutoUpdate, DSCurrentCallback, NULL,
    &dsCurrentHandle);
     My DateSockket Server Manger is configured as:
    However,it could not work properly when I debug it.
    There's a introduction at the top of the code."You may need to replace the references to weather.natinst.com to 130.164.140.10 if the DNS isn't working properly."So,I modified the statement into
    DS_Open ("dstp://130.164.140.10/weather/current",
    DSConst_ReadAutoUpdate, DSCurrentCallback, NULL,
    &dsCurrentHandle);
    but,it did work properly.
    We want to communicate with other computers via the URL of  DataSocket in LabWindows/CVI.Whereas,how could we make it ia the URL ?
    If anyone could help me solve this problem,I would appreciate it very much !
    Best regards.

    Hi !
    Thank you very much for your reply! I will accept your advice.
    Besides,I have another question.If I want to visit other computers or other websites,how does the URL of DataSocket  I constitute ? Does the URL has any relation with the DataSocket Server Manger ?If does,how to configure the DataSocket Server Manager to let them connected.If they have no relation,how to use the DataSocket Server Manger ?
    After all,I want to know how to use it in LabWinows/CVI ?
    Thank you very much !
    Best regards!

  • How can I tell if fan between front and rear bay is working?

    hi all
    How can I tell if fan between front and rear bays is working? I put my hand behind G4 MDD to feel for air flow and it seems minimal. I hear a wind tunnel sound but I feel more heat than air flow. Please help as I don't want my Mac to overheat
    Thanks, Web dude

    You can run your mac with the side "door" open - down flat to the right of the computer. You should be able to see the fan do (or not do) its thing.
    I have done this (run the mac with the side open) many times. For safety, I turn the mac off before opening / closing the door.

    How do I prevent paying for an app and what is an in app restriction

    You can't prevent paying for an app if you buy one. You can, however, turn off the ability to install apps in the Restrictions settings (Settings/General) which blocks the App Store app on the iPhone. You can also block making purchases of extra features or capabilities from within an app, which is referred to as an "in-app purchase", in the same Restrictions.

  • How does *.jsf extension map to *.jsp extension and where it is mapped

    Hi ,
    How does *.jsf extension map to *.jsp extension and where it is mapped ?
    Thanks

    How does *.jsf extension map to *.jsp extension and where it is mapped ?It is mapped in the web.xml.
    If you add the following in your web.xml:
    <context-param>
    <param-name>javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX</param-name>
    <param-value>.xhtml</param-value>
    </context-param>
    The *.jsf will be mapped to the file with the same name, but xhtml as extention.
    if you the javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX is not defined in the web.xml, the default suffix comes from the one of the constant of javax.faces.application.ViewHandler . This constant names DEFAULT_SUFFIX and equals to ".jsp"
    Look at:

    Hi,
    Create a table layout region and under that use 'messageStyledText' for displaying the prompt and use 'messageTextInput' for text field without giving any prompt to that.

  • How to stop any photo transferring between Mac and iphone

    how to stop any photo transferring between Mac and iphone ?

    This is a possibility. But please be aware using your Mac to emit a WiFi connection is a temporary solution. And it will get a short range unlike an actual WiFi Router. Also you may find it to be unstable at times. The Airport Card in your Mac was not designed to be a full time Router WiFi emitter. But more of a receiver to get the signal and use it for personal use.
    1. Unlock the network on your Mac make it an open network
    2. Go to your iPhone, Settings-Wireless-Tap on blue circle next to network name, Choose Forget network
    3. Now go back, It will rescan and find an open network, Connect, and see if Safari works
    If Safari works, Then you had a Security issue. Try using WEP 128 bit 13 character passkey or WEP 8 Character Passkey.
    Cheers and best of luck

  • HT4623 My iPad 2 does not say software update between about and usage in gerenal setting anyone know why this is

    My iPad 2 does not say software update between about and usage in general setting anyone know why this  any help welcome thanks

    Keith.  Look in settings, general, about.  About halfway down the screen is an entry labeled version.  If it is anything lower than 5.0, then you wil not get wireless updates.   You need to plug your pad into your computer that you set it up with which is running the current version of I tunes to get the update.
    When you plug it in to i tunes, be sure to do a backup.  Also, the machine will ask if you want to transfer purchases.  Tell it yes.  This saves your content and purchased apps and music to your iTunes on the computer.  When you do the software update, it will then reload that material onto your pad.
    If you have taken any pictures on your pad, be sure to upload those to I photo, or whatever photo library you are using so that they are not lost when you do the upgrade.
    Once you get to the current version, any future software updates can be done over the air, not requiring you to use the computer.  That feature was enabled with version 5.    But it is a good idea to do backup and syncs with your computer from time to time.

  • Is it possible to share a sequence between computers and different projects?

    Is it possible to share a sequence between computers and different projects without copying the sequence, closing the project, opening the new project and pasting in the sequence. This workflow is to slow when it takes 40 minutes for Premierer Pro CC to load a 4tb project. Just this simple thing would take 80 minutes.

    Okey, I found out how to import the seaquens, it is actually possible to make that choice after you click to import seaquence. But the problem is i do not want to import the media again. I already have that media in the other projekt. And once importingit it is offline and when I want to delete it it want to remove things from the timeline defeting the purpus. Is there a way to get aroun the fact that the program wants to import the media with the timeline.
    The thing is that I want to editing on two computer. On the second computer I will edit just a few scenes that I will later bring back in to the big project that has all the material. I have been copying the material for a few scenes to another external drive and also copied the big projekt and then opened this on my laptop. Then I made all the missing material offline while the projekt found the existing material. I editid the material. Copied the projekt and opened it on my stationary editing computer and copied the timeline with the scene that I had been working on while the media was loading, then shut down the project and opend the old big projekt and pasted the timeline in to the project.
    Is there an easier way?
    It would be nice to be able to import the timeline (without importing the media) when I have the program opened. Since it takes 40 minutes for my media to load.
