My question is how do i connect my internet connection to a managed switch and to the nxc2500 controller.  I want the ability to have multiple VLans that could be hardwired or wireless through the nxc2500 controller/AP's.  I was thinking the managed switch could be the DHCP server and serve the controller/AP's and the users.  How do i go about setting this up?  Do i setup all the vlan information in the managed switch and some how past that along to the controller?

Hoping someone can help me out, thanks.

    Hi @Reebs
    Here is our handbook link which introduces how to set WiFI Multiple SSID. You could refer to the chapter 2.2 with page 29.

    thanks, in the example do i attach the AP's to the controller or the switch?  I have seen examples of both in the handbook.

    also in the first part of your response it shows assigning a static ip to vlan10 192.168.10.33, is that required? if so then do i need to create a static ip for each vlan? so vlan20 would have  static ip address like 192.168.20.XX?
