Purpose
If the monitored access point is configured to require LEAP
authentication, configure the username and password that the
standby access point uses when it performs LEAP authentication.
This username and password must match the username and
password that you set up for the standby access point on the
authentication server.
Exit SSID configuration mode and return to radio interface
configuration mode.
Sets the number of seconds between queries that the standby
access point sends to the monitored access point's radio and
Ethernet ports. The default poll frequency is 2 seconds.
Sets the number of seconds the standby access point waits for a
response from the monitored access point before it assumes that
the monitored access point has malfunctioned. The default
timeout is 20 seconds.
You should increase the standby timeout setting if the
Note
bridged path between the standby and monitored access
points can be lost for periods greater than 20 seconds
(during spanning tree recalculation, for example).
If the monitored access point is configured to select the
Note
least congested radio channel, you might need to increase
the standby timeout setting. The monitored unit might
take up to 40 seconds to select the least congested
channel.
Device Protocol (DDP) message to the monitored access point to
disable the radios of the monitored access point when the standby
unit becomes active. This feature prevents client devices that are
associated to the monitored access point from remaining
associated to the malfunctioning unit.
Verify your entries. If the access point is in standby mode, this
command displays the standby parameters, including the MAC
address of the monitored access point and the poll-frequency and
timeout values. If the access point is not in standby mode, no iapp
standby mac-address appears.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
