Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers
We use two 9800-80 SSO Clusters as a replacement for the WLC8540. We are at the moment in the migration phase. In the end, there will be around 3000-4500 aps on these Clusters.
- Simplify the configuration.
- Easy Overview of the AP Config.
- CLI configuration.

- Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE), Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switches, Cisco Catalyst 9600 Series Switches and Cisco Catalyst 9500 Series Switches
That the C9800 and the Cat 9k Switches share the same IOS is helpful. So you have nearly the same Software Version running over all the different Platforms. The Commands for troubleshooting are nearly the same.
Yes as I wrote before, the tags are very useful to have a regular config over all of the APs. So we have only to set the right AP Name, and then the Policy Tag, RF-Tag, and Site Tag are set to the right value.
