About the Primary Airespace Switch or Appliance
Primary Airespace Switch or Appliance
In
Multiple-Airespace Switch and Appliance Deployments
networks, Airespace APs can associate with
any Airespace Wireless Switch or WLAN Appliance in
on the same subnet. To ensure
that each Airespace AP associates with a particular Airespace Switch or Appliance, the operator can
assign a Primary Airespace Switch or Appliance to the Airespace AP.
When an Airespace AP is added to a switched network, it looks for its Primary Airespace Switch or
Appliance first, then a
Master Airespace Switch or Appliance
, then the least-loaded Airespace Switch or
Appliance with available primary and secondary ports. Refer to
Airespace Switch and Appliance Failover
for more information.
