If you have more than one controller connected to the same mesh network, then you must specify the
name of the primary controller using global configuration for every mesh access point or specify the
primary controller on every node, otherwise the least loaded controller is the preferred. If the mesh
access points were previously connected to a controller, they already have learned a controller's name.
After configuring the controller name, the mesh access point reboots.

Debug Commands

The following two commands are very helpful to see the messages being exchanged between mesh
access points and the controller.
(Cisco Controller) >debug capwap events enable
(Cisco Controller) >debug disable-all
You can use the debug command to see the flow of packet exchanges that occur between the mesh access
point and the controller. The mesh access point initiates the discovery process. An exchange of
credentials takes place during the Join phase to authenticate that the mesh access point is allowed to join
the mesh network.
Upon a successful join completion, the mesh access point sends an CAPWAP configuration request. The
controller responds with a configuration response. When a Configure Response is received from the
controller, the mesh access point evaluates each configuration element and then implements them.
