IAPs unable to communicate on cisco trunk port
The issue I'm having is I can't seem to get my IAPs to get join the cluster if they are connected to a trunk port. Here's what I have setup in the environment thus far.
I have sonicwall with VLANs defined on subinterfaces. I have a trunk port on my cisco switch connected to the X0 of the sonicwall. Then I have a few ports that have access to a single vlan that the data network is configured on. When I connected the IAPs to this network they work on the data network but don't work for the guest wireless as it is on a different VLAN (Expected Result). When I connected the IAP to a trunk port on the switch it never comes up and doesn't start broadcasting. It doesn't seem to be able to communicate with the proper VLANs.

Figured out it was an issue with the default vlan on the trunk ports.
