Multi-connection access point

1. An access point comprising a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processing resource, cause the processing resource to:

establish a first connection to a first controller, wherein the access point receives configuration data from the first controller to generate a first virtual access point with the first controller; and

establish a second connection to a second controller, wherein the access point receives configuration data from the second controller to generate a second virtual access point with the second controller,

wherein the access point provides services to a first zone through the first virtual access point and a second zone through the second virtual access point and the first controller is configured to manage one or more settings of the first virtual access point of the access point and one or more other first zone access points without affecting the second controller from separately managing one or more settings of the second virtual access point of the access point and one or more other second zone access points,

wherein the first controller utilizes a first protocol and the second controller utilizes a second protocol, and

wherein setting changes received from the first controller overrides setting changes received from the second controller.

2. The access point of claim 1 , wherein the first controller manages services for the first zone and the second controller manages services for the second zone.

3. The access point of claim 1 , wherein the first controller manages settings of the access point.

4. The access point of claim 1 , wherein the first controller includes a first security classification and a second controller includes a second security classification.

5. A non-transitory memory resource including instructions executable by a processing resource to:

establish a first connection with a first controller corresponding to a first zone of a network;

receive configuration data to establish a first virtual access point corresponding to the first controller;

establish a second connection with a second controller corresponding to a second zone of the network; and

receive configuration data to establish a second virtual access point corresponding to the second controller,

wherein the access point provides services to a first zone through the first virtual access point and a second zone through the second virtual access point and the first controller is configured to manage one or more settings of the first virtual access point of the access point and one or more other first zone access points without affecting the second controller from separately managing one or more settings of the second virtual access point of the access point and one or more other second zone access points,

wherein the first controller utilizes a first protocol and the second controller utilizes a second protocol, and

wherein setting changes received from the first controller overrides setting changes received from the second controller.

6. The memory resource of claim 5 , wherein the configuration data to establish the first virtual access point includes a first extended service set identification (ESSID) and the configuration data to establish the second virtual access point includes a second ESSID.

7. The memory resource of claim 5 , wherein received traffic including the first ESSID is transferred to the first controller and received traffic including the second ESSID is transferred to the second controller.

8. A method, comprising:

sending, by an access point, a first connection request to a first controller;

receiving, by the access point, configuration data from the first controller to generate a first virtual access point on the access point;

sending, by the access point, a second connection request to a second controller, wherein the first controller and the second controller are different controllers; and

receiving, by the access point, configuration data from the second controller to generate a second virtual access point on the access point,

wherein the access point provides services to a first zone through the first virtual access point and a second zone through the second virtual access point and the first controller is configured to manage one or more settings of the first virtual access point of the access point and one or more other first zone access points without affecting the second controller from separately managing one or more settings of the second virtual access point of the access point and one or more other second zone access points,

wherein the first controller utilizes a first protocol and the second controller utilizes a second protocol, and

wherein setting changes received from the first controller overrides setting changes received from the second controller.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein receiving configuration data from the first controller includes receiving configuration instructions to send a plurality of additional connection requests to additional controllers.

10. The method of claim 8 , comprising receiving, by the access point, communication from a plurality of client devices communicatively coupled to the access point.

11. The method of claim 10 , comprising, transferring, by the access point, the communication to either the first controller or the second controller based on the configuration data received from the first controller.
