5.2.8 Profile Critical Resources

System Profile Configuration
Critical resources are device IP addresses or interface destinations on the network interoperated as critical to the health of the
network. The critical resource feature allows for the continuous monitoring of these addresses. A critical resource, if not
available, can result in the network suffering performance degradation. A critical resource can be a gateway, a AAA server, a
WAN interface or any hardware or service on which the stability of the network depends. Critical resources are pinged regularly
by the access point. If there's a connectivity issue, an event is generated stating a critical resource is unavailable. By default,
there's no enabled critical resource policy and one needs to be created and implemented.
Critical resources can be monitored directly through the interfaces on which they're discovered. For example, a critical resource
on the same subnet as the access point can be monitored by its IP address. However, a critical resource located on a VLAN
must continue to monitored on that VLAN.
Critical resources can be configured for access points and wireless controllers using their respective profiles.
