during the service. If the fallback operation is configured, the AP periodically performs
health check to check whether the primary APC can be connected. When the connection
is required, it can immediately perform fallback according to the fallback option or can
perform fallback on a specified time. The reason why configuring fallback time zone is to
minimize the service interruption due to fallback by making it happens when the load is
low.
In an APC, operator can configure the primary and backup APCs of an AP in the following
steps:
1 Register APCs to the APC list.
In the ‘APC List Management’, how to add the APC list is described.
2 Add the APCs in the APC list to redundancy.
If necessary, configure the fallback function.
And then, operator can configure the APCs added to redundancy as the
primary, secondary, or tertiary server of an AP.
3 Configure a primary, secondary, and tertiary server per AP. To make an
AP operate in redundancy configuration, configure the Discovery Type
of the AP as ‘APC Referral’.
Use the Multi-Set function of WEC to configure several APs at the same
time.
Configuration using CLI
1 By referring to the ‘AP List Management’, add the APC list that will be
used as a backup APC.
2 After entering into the configure redundancy mode, add or delete the
APCs in the APC list. If necessary, configure the fallback function.
