3. Refer to the Status field to assess the current state of the redundancy group.
Redundancy state is Displays the state of the redundancy group. When the redundancy
feature is disabled, the state is “Disabled.” When enabled, it goes
to a “Startup” state. From “Startup” it goes to a “Discovery” state
immediately if the STP convergence is not enabled. Otherwise, it
remains in “Startup” for a period of 50 seconds (the standard STP
convergence time). During the discover state, the switch
exchanges heartbeats and update messages to discover other
members and define the redundancy group license. After
discerning memberships, it moves to an Active state. There is no
difference in state execution for Primary and Standby modes.
Licenses in switch Displays the number of licenses installed to adopt access ports on
the current switch. For information on licensing rules impacting
redundancy group members, see
Redundancy Group License Aggregation Rules on page 5-45.
Protocol Version The Cluster Protocol should be set to an identical value for each
switch in the redundancy group. The protocol version is one of the
parameters used to determine whether two peers can form a group
Licenses in Group Displays the number of access ports that can be adopted in the
redundancy group. This value is calculated when a member starts-
up, is added, is deleted or a license changes (downgrade
and upgrade.) This value is equal to the highest license level of its
members. It is NOT the sum of the license level of its members. For
information, see
Redundancy Group License Aggregation Rules on page 5-45.
Access Ports in group Displays the total of the number of access ports adopted by the
redundancy group.
Adoption capacity in
group
Displays the combined AP adoption capability for each radio
comprising the cluster. Compare this value with the adoption
capacity on this switch to determine if the cluster members have
adequate adoption capabilities.
Rogue Access Ports in
group
Displays the cumulative number of rogue APs detected by the
members of the group. Compare this value with the number of
rogues detected by this AP to discern whether an abundance of
rogues has been located by a particular switch and thus escalates
a security issue with a particular switch.
Radios in group Displays the combined number (sum) of radios a amongst all the
members of the redundancy group.
Self-healing radios in
group
Displays the number of radios within the cluster that have self-
healing capabilities enabled. Compare this value with the total
number of radios within the group to determine how effectively the
radios within the cluster can self-heal if problems exist.
Mobile Units in group Displays the combined number of MU associations for the
members of the redundancy group. Compare this number with the
number of MUs on this switch to determine how effectively MU
associations are distributed within the cluster.
DHCP Server in Group Displays the total number of DHCP Servers available for DHCP
resources for the combined cluster membership.
