Clustering
The clustering function comprehensively manages several APC systems in a single
wireless LAN when several APC systems are used to manage a wireless LAN that cannot
be managed by a single APC. The inter-APC handover function is provided by using
clustering. In other words, it can provide the handover function between wireless LANs
managed by different APC systems.
However, if a model is different, it is not interoperated through clustering.
Configuration using CLI
[Cluster Setting]
To use the clustering function, you must configure each APC according to the following
procedure. Maximum 12 WEC8500 can be grouped in a cluster. Maximum 2 WEC8050
can be grouped in a cluster:
1 Go to the configure mode of the CLI.
WEC8500# configure terminal
WEC8500/configure#
2 Set the interval and the number of retries to transmit the Keep-alive
messages between APCs in the cluster.
o cluster keep-alive-interval [INTERVAL]
o cluster keep-alive-retry-count [RETRY_COUNT]
Interval to transmit the Keep-alive message
(Unit: s, range: 1-30, default: 10)
Maximum number of the transmission retries when there
is no response to the Keep-alive message (range: 3-20,
default: 3)
3 Enable the cluster
o cluster enable: Enable
o no cluster enable: Disable
4 To check the configuration information, use the ‘show cluster config’
command.
WEC8500# show cluster config
