Usage Guidelines
If your deployment includes both master and local controllers, then the campus AP whitelist on each controller
contains an entry for every AP on the network, regardless of the controller to which it is connected. The master
controller also maintains a whitelist of local controllers with APs using control plane security. When you change
a campus AP whitelist on any controller, that controller contacts the master controller to check the local switch
whitelist, then contacts every other controller on the local switch whitelist to notify it of the change.
If you ever remove a local controller from the network, you must also remove the local controller from the local
switch whitelist. If the local switch whitelist contains entries for local controllers no longer on the network, then
a campus AP whitelist entry can be marked for deletion but will not be physically deleted, as the controller will
be waiting for an acknowledgement from another controller no longer on the network. Any unused local
controller entries in the local switch whitelist can significantly increase network traffic and reduce controller
memory resources.
Example
The following command removes a local controller from the local switch whitelist:
(host) (config) #whitelist-db cpsec-local-switch-list del mac-address 00:1E:33:CA:D2:51
