When Backhaul
Failovers are enabled, the AP forms a mesh link with other hive
members and can failover backhaul communications from Eth0 to a wireless interface
if the Ethernet link goes down.
Note
Extreme Networks provides defaults for each
item in this section. The following steps are optional.
-
Toggle On and configure
the following settings to define when to failover the backhaul link from
Ethernet to wireless, and when to return the backhaul to Ethernet:
-
In Switch to Wireless
Backhaul, set how long the Ethernet link must be down to
trigger a failover to the wireless link.
-
In Revert Back to Wired
Backhaul, set how long the Ethernet link must be up
before the AP returns backhaul communications to Ethernet.
-
Select Save.
