Branch
3850 is optimized for branch deployments when it operates in mobility controller mode. In this mode, not only can
the switch terminate CAPWAP tunnels from the access points and provide client connectivity, it can also manage
mobility within the branch. This eliminates the need for a local controller in every branch in addition to the access-
layer switches. Also, complete visibility into the wired plus wireless traffic means that the WAN router can prioritize
the right wired plus wireless traffic in and out of the branch. Figure 7 shows Cisco Catalyst 3850 in the branch
type deployment.
