Usage
You can optionally specify a secondary seed in a Mobility Domain. The secondary seed
provides redundancy for the primary seed switch in the Mobility Domain. If the primary seed
becomes unavailable, the secondary seed assumes the role of the seed MX. This allows the Mobility
Domain to continue functioning if the primary seed becomes unavailable.
When the primary seed MX fails, the remaining members form a Mobility Domain, with the
secondary seed taking over as the primary seed MX.
● If countermeasures had been in effect on the primary seed, they are stopped while the
secondary seed gathers RF data from the member switches. Once the secondary seed has
rebuilt the RF database, countermeasures can be restored.
● VLAN tunnels (other than those between the member switches and the primary seed) continue
to operate normally.
● Roaming and session statistics continue to be gathered, providing that the primary seed is
uninvolved with roaming.
When the primary seed is restored, the seed resumes the role of the primary seed MX in the
Mobility Domain. The secondary seed returns to the role of a regular member of the Mobility
Domain.
