Wireless & Wired network behind same firewall interface?

Currently the 6504 that houses our WiSM blades are behind the same ASA interface as the wired network.

It was placed there because all the AP's are in H-REAP mode, and user traffic doesn't go through the WiSM's.

We're adding more AP's that will run local mode, and I'm thinking it's best to move the WiSM's to a different firewall interface, even though we run WPA2 w/ AES, which is very secure.

I'm a little hesitant because moving the WiSM's means there will be an outage for all the remote sites that sit on those WLC's, and I need to find out exactly which ports need to be allowed through the firewall for LWAPP/CAPWAP to work properly.


Thoughts or suggestions?
