Configuring Remote AP Failback
In conjunction with the backup switch list, you can configure remote APs to revert back (failback) to the
primary switch if it becomes available. If you do not explicitly configure this behavior, the remote AP will keep
its connection with the backup switch until the remote AP, switch, or both have rebooted or some type of
network failure occurs. If any of these events occur, the remote AP will go through the backup switch list and
attempt to connect with the primary switch.

Enabling RAP Local Network Access
You can enable local network access between the clients (from same or different subnets and VLANs)
connected to a RAP through wired or wireless interfaces in split-tunnel/bridge forwarding modes. This allows
the clients to effectively communicate with each other without routing the traffic via the switch. You can use
WebUI or CLI to enable the local network access.
