5.2.9 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.
To define critical resources:
1. Select the Configuration tab from the Web UI.
2. Select Devices .
3. Select System Profile from the options on left-hand side of the UI.
4. Select Critical Resources .
Figure 5-89 Critical Resources screen - List of Critical Resources tab
The screen lists the destination IP addresses or interfaces (VLAN, WWAN, or PPPoE) used for critical resource connection.
IP addresses can be monitored directly by the access point or controller, whereas a VLAN, WWAN or PPPoE must be
monitored behind an interface.
5. Select the Add button at the bottom of the screen to add a new critical resource and connection method, or select and
existing resource and select Edit to update the resource’s configuration.
Network Monitoring:
Delta Priority Use this setting to decrement the configured priority (by the set value) when the
monitored interface is down. When critical resource monitoring, the configured value is
incremented by the value defined.
