Wireless Network Management
Network Self Healing
■ take no action
Remember that radios are always neighbors to each other. However, you
might want one radio to respond to the failure of a second radio, but you
might not want the second radio to respond to the failure of the first radio.
For example, the second radio might be in a more important location.
When editing the second radio, configure it to take no action.
Note If you configure a dedicated detector to take action when a neighbor fails, that
radio automatically changes to single-channel detector mode when it takes
the action so that it can support wireless stations.
Keep these considerations in mind as you configure the action:
■ You configure an action for a radio, not for a neighbor. The radio must
take the same action no matter which of its neighbors fails.
■ You can configure one action for one radio and another for one of its
neighbors. For example, you might configure one radio to open its data
rates, but you might configure the neighbor to take no action.
To configure the self-healing action, complete these steps:
1. Select Special Features > Self Healing and click the Neighbor Details tab. In
the upper-right corner of the screen, verify that neighbor recovery is
enabled.
2. Select the radio for which you want to define the action, and then click
the Edit button. The Edit Neighbors screen is displayed. (See Figure 13-70.)
