Cluster

The cluster function provides a centralized method to administer and control wireless services
across multiple devices. When access points are clustered, you can view, deploy, configure, and
secure the wireless network as a single entity.
Note-Firmware version 1.1.0 or above support cluster feature. If your device has legacy
firmware installed, download the latest one from www.linksys.com/support.
The access points within a cluster must have the same management VLAN configured. A cluster
can support 16 LAPAC1200C/LAPAC1750C access 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. Log in 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.
An authenticated client that has been disconnected
from the access point has a specific amount of time
within which it may reconnect without re-
authentication. The timer starts when the client
disconnects from the SSID. After the time reaches
zero, the client is de-authenticated. If the timeout is
set to 0, the client is not de-authenticated. Measured
in seconds.
The remaining time of the authenticated session. The
timer starts when the client is authenticated. After
the time reaches zero, the client is de-authenticated.
If the value is fixed to 0, the session won't time out.
Measured in seconds.
