11. (Optionally) Modify the configurations of all your other Access Points
accordingly. We recommend that you use different frequencies for
neighboring Access Points, as described in Dual Channel Configuration
(page 6-13) or Multiple-Channel Configuration (page 6-14).
Link Integrity
In situations where the connection of the Access Point to the rest of the Ethernet
network fails, typically as a result of a broken cable connection or network error,
the Ethernet failure might disrupt regular network communication for (roaming)
wireless stations.
CAUTION:This feature is only used if your network provides duplicate
ethernet connections.
If the wireless connection however is still intact, the wireless station would not
roam to another Access Point, since its radio might still interpret its “physical”
connection to the Access Point as “good” or “acceptable”.
The Ethernet link integrity feature is a high-end solution that enables you to
resolve this type of network failures, as it allows Access Points to:
■
Detect any disruption in its connection to network services by testing the
link between the Access Point and a maximum of three IP hosts.
■
Reconnect automatically to another Access Point in situations where
disruptions occur that are not related to poor radio communications.
