In Lab 5.5 part 2 - it asks to configure a Guest2 SSID using RADIUS auth 
against AD.

In the solution guide it goes through the steps of configuring the RADIUS 
server details on both the local controller AND the anchor controller.

Through some testing today it seems that the configuration on the local 
controller is not necessary.

I was trying to do Local EAP-FAST authentication today and it occurred to me 
how silly it would be if you had to configure the users on every single 
controller in order for it to work properly so I just deleted the config from 
the local and left only on anchor and it still continued to authenticate 
successfully.

Since all of the authentication is apparently handled by the anchor controller 
- and not at all by the local controller - what is the benefit of configuring 
it on the local controller as well?

Am I missing something here?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.
