Introduction
Wireless Services Module (WiSM) −2 2 Data Planes are the next generation wireless data processing service
modules for Cat6k after service blade WiSM and WiSM−2 1 DP. There are no differences between the
WiSM−2 1DP and WiSM−2 2 DP, other than the SW release before 7.2 Cisco supported only one Data Plane
on the Blade. The second DP was physically on the board, but was not activated in the software. With the
release of the Controller software version 7.2.103 and new software for Sup 720 and Sup 2Tmodules, both
Data Planes are activated. Therefore, support for up to 1000 access points (APs) and 15,000 clients is
provided with a total throughput of 20 GBsec.

The base board of the WiSM−2 is based on the design of the 5508 wireless controller daughter board. WLAN
Controller Protocol (WCP) is the software glue between the Supervisor and WiSM−2 Controller. WCP
runs on UDP/IP, port 10000 over Service Interface. Once the WiSM−2 Controller is up, there are software
heartbeats or keepalives between the supervisor and WiSM−2 Controller. The controller requests the
supervisor for its slot/processor information. The controller conveys its management IP address to the
Supervisor Module (when changed on−the−fly, it is conveyed to the Supervisor automatically). After every 12
hellos (240 s), the controller requests global state information about other controllers in the system.
