Recommendation to connect a Cisco WLC with Lag enabled to a Meraki switch (MS425) in a port channel?

Do you guys have a recommendation to connect a Cisco WLC with Lag enabled to a Meraki switch (MS425) in a port channel?

 

Thanks,

You can use LACP.

Can't say I have ever bothered using LACP with a WLC.  I normally just configure primary and backup ports.  Keeps everything simple then.

@PhilipDAth, an AireOS based Cisco WLC does not have the ability to do LACP, only static LAG is supported.

So basically you cannot do this with a Meraki switch.
You'll only be able to use the classic one port active for an interface and another backup.
