Section 9 - Clustering Multiple APs

Field

Description

Pass Phrase

Passphrase must be configured for the secure mode to be effective.

Passphrase must be at least 8 characters to a maximum of 63 characters.

Acceptable characters include upper and lower case alphabetic letters, the numeric digits,

and special symbols such as @ and #.

Leading and trailing spaces are not allowed.

Reauthentication

Timeout

This timeout verifies the authenticity of the cluster members with higher IP address at

regular intervals. Default value is 300 seconds.

Table 66 - Secure Join Clustering

Note:

Currently, Single IP Management and Secure Join Clustering features are available only in

DWL-3610AP and DWL-6610B1AP.

Removing an Access Point from the Cluster

To remove an access point from the cluster, do the following.

1.)

Go to the Administration Web pages for the clustered access point.

The Administration Web pages for the standalone access point are displayed.

2.)

Click the

Cluster > Access Points

link in the Administration pages.

3.)

Click

Stop Clustering

.

4.)

The change will be reflected under Status for that access point; the access point will now show as stand-alone

(instead of cluster).

Adding an Access Point to a Cluster

To add an access point that is currently in standalone mode back into a cluster, do the following.

1.)

Go to the Administration Web pages for the standalone access point.

2.)

Click the


link in the Administration pages for the stand-alone access point.

The

Access Points

page for a standalone access point indicates that the current mode is standalone.

3.)

Type the name or location of the AP in the

Location

field to identify the AP within the cluster.

4.)

Type the name of the cluster for the AP to join in the

Cluster Name

field.

5.)

Click

Start Clustering

.

6.)

The access point is now a cluster member. Its Status (Mode) on the


page now

indicates Cluster instead of Not Clustered.

Navigating to Configuration Information for a Specific AP

In general, the UAP is designed for central management of

clustered

access points. For access points in a cluster,

all access points in the cluster reflect the same configuration. In this case, it does not matter which access point you

actually connect to for administration.

There may be situations, however, when you want to view or manage information on a particular access point. For

example, you might want to check status information such as client associations or events for an access point. In this

case, you can navigate to the Administration Web interface for individual access points by clicking the IP address links

on the

Access Points

page.

All clustered access points are shown on the


page. To navigate to clustered access points,

you can simply click on the IP address for a specific cluster member shown in the list.

Navigating to an AP by Using its IP Address in a URL

You can also link to the Administration Web pages of a specific access point, by entering the IP address for that
