Redundancy Groups
Configuring a Redundancy Group
To configure a redundancy group on a module, complete the following steps:
1. Click Network Setup > Redundancy Group and select the
Configuration tab.
Figure 4-6. Network Setup > Redundancy Group > Configuration Screen
2. In the Interface ID field, enter the IP address of the module you are
configuring. The redundancy feature uses this IP address to send heart-
beat and update messages to the other module in the redundancy group.
(When you configure the redundancy group on the other module, you
enter this IP address when you add a member.)
Note If you have assigned an IP address to more than one VLAN on the module, you
should use the IP address assigned to the default management interface
(which is, by default, VLAN 1).
If you decide to enter the IP address for a different VLAN, however, you must
ensure that the redundancy traffic (such as the heartbeat and update mes-
sages) can be transmitted to the other module in the group. If the other module
is installed in another wireless services-enabled switch on the network, both
wireless services-enabled switches and all the switches in between must be
able to transmit traffic on that VLAN.
