A method, apparatus and computer program product for performing load balancing of SNDs and FNDs is presented. The presently disclosed method and apparatus for providing load balancing solves the problem of improper wireless traffic distribution in an enterprise network that may cause overload on some FNDs while some others are lightly loaded. The presently described methods and apparatus, by use of a single command, allow a user to restore the FNDs and SNDs to a preplanned topology or balance the load on controllers without overriding the manual assignments specified by the user.
