WC9500 Unified SSID question

Hi,

 

We using a WC9500 controller with many access points. We using separate SSID for 2.4G and 5G but they are the same across the whole range of AP's. Is there a possibility to set up the same SSID for the both 2.4G and 5G and will it work as intended, so users won't have to worry about which one to connect and also reduces the number of saved entries in the wireless list?

 

Will the controller handle this correctly?

 

Thank you in advance.

    Unfortunately, Unified SSID is not yet supported for a wireless controller. It could be better if you will post this on our Ideas Exchange for Business board so that our engineering team may consider it.
