While it is vendor specific (and therefore subject to certain biases) =
I=E2=80=99ve found the Aruba VRD (Validated Reference Design) documentati=

fairly clear and applicable to many high-density environments. It =

I=E2=80=99m certain that Cisco, Xirrus, Ruckus, Ubiquiti, Areohive, etc. =
also =
have papers on the topic that (hopefully) have the same basic theory =
concepts applied to their specific configuration syntax and special =

the proprietary features to keep things simple.
There are also some less-formal slide decks on the same topic from Aruba =
that are a bit redundant but more conversational:
