Motorola RF Switch System Reference Guide
B.1.11 Remote Site Survivability (RSS)
RSS can be used to turn off RF activity on an AAP if it loses adoption (connection) to the switch.
B.1.12 Adaptive Mesh Support
An AAP can extend an AP51x1's existing mesh functionality to a switch managed network. All mesh APs are
configured and managed through the wireless switch. APs without a wired connection form a mesh backhaul
to a repeater or a wired mesh node and then get adopted to the switch. Mesh nodes with existing wired
access get adopted to the switch like a wired AAP.
Mesh AAPs apply configuration changes 180 seconds after the last received switch configuration message.
When the configuration is applied on the Mesh AAP, the radios shutdown and re-initialize (this process takes
less than 2 seconds), forcing associated MUs to be deauthenticated and the Mesh link will go down. MUs
are able to quickly associate, but the Mesh link will need to be re-established before MUs can pass traffic.
This typically takes about 90 to 180 seconds depending on the size of the mesh topology.
B.1.12.1 Configuring Adaptive AP Mesh
To configure mesh support for Adaptive AP:
1. Go to
Network
>
Access Port Radios
and click on the
Global Settings
button.
2. Uncheck the
Adopt Unconfigured Radios Automatically
option to prevent the switch from
automatically adopting new APs when they are connected to the switch.
RSS State
Independent WLANs
Extended WLANs
RSS Enabled
WLAN continues beaconing
WLAN continues beaconing but AP does not
allow clients to associate on that WLAN
RSS Disabled
WLAN stops beaconing
WLAN stops beaconing
NOTE
For a dependant AAP, independent WLANs continue to beacon for three
days in the absence of a switch.
NOTE
When mesh is used with AAPs, the "ap-timeout" value needs to be set to
a higher value (for example, 180 seconds) so Mesh AAPs remain adopted
to the switch during the period when the configuration is applied and
mesh links are re-established.
