Nancy,
Unless I missed something in a later feature release, Wireless requires
IN-band.

Also, I would not run the VLAN for the LWAPP access points through the CAS.
 You want your AP's to be on an unmanaged network.   Think of it this way.
 Your doubling the traffic through your CAS because all the traffic has to
traverse the CAS to get to the Wireless controller, and then sent back to
the CAS to have authentication/posture.   (  Client -> AP -> CAS ->
WirelessController -> CAS -> Internet  )

Another side affect is that you would have to create exclusions (Filters)
for all the Access Points in the CAM/CAS so the AP's could communicate with
the Wireless Controller.

I would trunk a VLAN into the Wireless controller, and run that VLAN thru
CAS. Then you have your SSID dump all your traffic on this VLAN. This is how
I've setup CCA before.
You can even get fancy and apply different VLAN's to different User
accounts, using the same SSID.

I'm sure Lee will chime in with a similar answer.
