The access points within a cluster must have the same management VLAN configured. A cluster
can support 16 LAPAC2600access points as long as they are same model number.
In each cluster, one access point must be manually configured as the master access point. There
can only be one master in a cluster. This master will propagate configuration information, such as
wireless settings, time settings etc. to the other team members within a cluster. Login to the
master access point to change sharable parameter settings instead of slaves.
When firmware is upgraded on the master, all slaves within the same cluster will receive the
upgrade.
