CAPsMAN over DSL

Tue Feb 06, 2018 5:35 pm

Is it possible to manage two AP that reside geographically away from CAP manager by a DSL line ?

Image

Each location wifi user must use the related DSL line to surf the web. (no clients traffic managed by CAPsMAN)

Thanks

Yes.
Just add the (reachable) address of the manager to the remote CAPs config while leaving "discovery interface" blank, select "local fowarding" in datapath and configure your vlans wisely at each site.

Thank you,

Should I configure a tunnel for CAP purpose , or manager can be reachable with a simple port-forwarding ?

there are two scenarios, if the DSL1 and DSL2 are on the same subnet which is provided by the ISP then yes you can simply reach the other side using Layer3 and specifying the capsman manager ip.
if the DSL1 and DSL2 and not within the same subnet (intranet) and you have a public ip on first side, then simply create a vpn tunnel and others caps a\can join your capsman.
hope this answers your question.
