I have yet to deploy any APs in flex connect mode.  This is as good a place to 
start as any as long as it can accomplish the goal.

I wish I could deploy a home mesh wifi solution, but unfortunately this house 
is a bit like a mullet, business up front party in the back.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco WLC / Home router

We have a cisco 2504 WLC with 8.2.161 code (can change) going into a special 
situation were need to provide several SSIDs with one SSID that acts and 
operates just like a home router. I am trying to find information on settings 
to change and profiles to create to recreate the feel of a home router.  My two 
areas of concern are mDNS and gaming.

For mDNS we currently have to define individual services to permit.  This SSID 
has to be open to any device / service that they want to connect: Apple 
product, Chromecast, speakers, cyborg guinea pigs, whatever... and I'm not sure 
how to provide that.  As for gaming I know devices like the Nintendo Switch use 
PtP hosting mechanisms to establish some multiplayer games.  We opted to 
dedicate 1-1 public IPs to resolve those issues on campus.  At this location 
there will only be one IP to PAT, but I will still need to ensure devices like 
the Switch still work.

I would appreciate any information or documentation that anyone can provide to 
point me towards this goal.

Thank you,
