Uplink Check
9.9.1
Overview
In AP mode, the AP connects to its upstream network using the LAN0 port. If a critical node
between the LAN0 port and the upstream network fails, the AP as well as the wireless clients
connected to the AP cannot access the upstream network. If uplink check is enabled, the AP
regularly pings specified hosts through the LAN0 port. If all the hosts are not reachable, the
AP stops its wireless service and wireless clients cannot find the SSIDs of the AP. The client
can reconnect to the AP only after the connection between the AP and the upstream
networks is recovered.
If the uplink of the AP with uplink check enabled is faulty, wireless clients can connect to the
upstream network through another nearby AP that works properly.
See the following topology (The LAN0 port serves as the uplink port).
