The Cisco® 5760 Wireless Controller (Figure 1) is an industry-leading platform designed for 802.11ac networks with maximum performance and services at scale, combined with high availability for mission-critical wireless networks. Through the Unified Access Data Plane (UADP) application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), it delivers wire-speed performance with services such as advanced quality of service (QoS), flexible NetFlow v9, and downloadable ACLs. Delivering on the One Network component of the Unified Access vision, the Cisco 5760 offers:
ΓùÅ Wire-speed 60-Gbps throughput with services
ΓùÅ Up to 1000 access points per controller and 72,000 access points in a cluster
ΓùÅ Up to 12,000 clients per controller and 864,000 clients in a cluster
ΓùÅ Network traffic visibility through flexible NetFlow v9
ΓùÅ RF visibility and protection
ΓùÅ Cisco CleanAir® technology
ΓùÅ ClientLink 3.0
ΓùÅ VideoStream
ΓùÅ Access Point Stateful Switchover(AP SSO)
ΓùÅ Application Visibility with AVC
ΓùÅ Service Discovery Gateway
Features
The 5760 Wireless Controller can operate in both converged access mode and centralized mode. Converged access mode provides a hierarchical network design that distributes the wireless data plane at the access layer on Cisco Catalyst® switches for maximum performance and scale. Converged access mode provides maximum resiliency by constraining outages to smaller failure domains. Additionally, converged access mode delivers high availability with access point stateful failover (access point SSO), making sure SSIDs are highly available and have minimal effect on wireless clients. (See Tables 1 and 2)
Table 1. Cisco 5760 Wireless LAN Controller Features
| Feature | Benefits |
| Scalability | ΓùÅ Supports up to 1000 access points and 12,000 wireless clients for business-critical wireless services. ΓùÅ Unparalleled scalable wireless solution including multiple controllers can support up to 72,000 access points and 864,000 wireless clients. |
| High performance | ΓùÅ Optimized for 802.11ac standard. ΓùÅ 6 10G SFP+ uplinks. ΓùÅ Hardware processing to provide up to 60 Gbps throughput with services such as downloadable ACL, granular QoS queues, fairness algorithm, NetFlow v9 processing, and so on. |
| High resiliency | ΓùÅ Converged access deployment mode provides hierarchical network design that constraints outages to smaller failure domains, thereby providing higher resiliency. Wireless clients will recover quickly from switch failures within the Cisco 3850 or 3650 Series switch stack automatically through stateful failover (access point SSO). ΓùÅ Cisco 5760 in centralized deployment mode (also known as local mode) supports 1+1 and N+1 resiliency. ΓùÅ Multiple link aggregation (LAG) support to protect against link failures while maintaining the optimal network connectivity. ΓùÅ 5760 also supports stateful switchover to the standby 5760 controller using the StackWise technology |
| Service Discovery Gateway | ΓùÅ Enables Apple Bonjour® services to be advertised and utilized in a separate Layer 2 network. Supports mDNS and DNS-SD standards for full interoperability. |
| Application Visibility | ΓùÅ Supports Cisco Application Visibility and Control(AVC), the technology that includes the Network-Based Application Recognition 2 (NBAR-2) engine, Cisco's deep packet inspection (DPI) capability |
| Controller based on Cisco IOS Software | ΓùÅ Proven and security hardened Cisco IOS® Software operating system. ΓùÅ Well known Cisco IOS Software CLI allows customers to use existing management tools for operations. ΓùÅ Cisco’s rich NetFlow ecosystem enables customers to use reporting, monitoring, traffic analysis, and troubleshooting tools for wireless network. |
| ClientLink 2.0 | ΓùÅ Cisco ClientLink 2.0 technology to improve downlink performance to all mobile devices, including one-, two, and three-spatial-stream devices on 802.11n while improving battery life on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. |
| CleanAir | ΓùÅ Cisco CleanAir technology, which provides proactive, high-speed spectrum intelligence to combat performance problems due to wireless interference. |
| RF management | ΓùÅ Provides both real-time and historical information about RF interference affecting network performance across controllers using systemwide Cisco CleanAir technology integration. |
| Comprehensive end-to-end security | ΓùÅ Offers Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP)-compliant DTLS encryption to make sure of encryption between access points and controllers or between controllers. |
| High-performance video | ΓùÅ Optimized video delivery using single stream for both wired and wireless clients. ΓùÅ Supports Cisco VideoStream technology to optimize the delivery of business-critical multicast video applications across the WLAN. |
| End-to-end voice | |
| Advanced QoS | ΓùÅ Consistent configuration CLI for both wired and wireless QoS through modular QoS CLI (MQC). ΓùÅ Granular QoS policies per access point, SSID, radio, and client. ΓùÅ Fair bandwidth allocation across wireless clients on an access point. ΓùÅ Uses Cisco’s proven Cisco IOS Software and ASIC technology to provide line-rate performance. |
| Advanced ACL | ΓùÅ Simplifies and centralizes security policies through downloadable ACLs. ΓùÅ ACLs are processed in hardware to provide line-rate performance. |
| Flexible NetFlow v9 | ΓùÅ Networkwide visibility with flexible NetFlow for wireless clients. |
| Environmentally responsible | ΓùÅ Organizations may choose to turn off access point radios to reduce power consumption during off-peak hours. ΓùÅ Integrated wireless LAN controller avoids the deployment of additional device in the network. |
| Mobility and security | ΓùÅ Secure, reliable wireless connectivity and consistent end-user experience. ΓùÅ Increased network availability through proactive blocking of known threats. |
| IPv6 | ΓùÅ Supports IPv6 addressing on interfaces with appropriate show commands for monitoring and troubleshooting. ΓùÅ IPv6 ACLs are processed in hardware to provide line-rate performance. |
