teaming and licensing

hello, 

i have two teamed controllers msm 760 and more tehn 40 APs.  

we’ve bought additional 40 ap  license and installed it on primary controller.  Can you please explain what happens if primary WLC fails, will secondary handle more then 40 APs? I mean if the license floats between teamed controllers when failover occurs, or  we have to buy dedicated license for each teamed units?

 

thanks

Re: teaming and licensing

From the latest controller configuration guide: "APs is the total numberof APs you want to deploy. You must buy one license for each controlled AP. Although licenses are installed on individual team members, licenses are pooled across
the entire team and are automatically re-allocated when a team member becomes inoperative". See the following article for additional details:
