Single Point Setup Negotiation
When a AP is enabled and configured for Single Point Setup, it begins sending
periodic advertisements every 10 seconds to announce its presence. If there are
other WAP devices that match the criteria for the cluster, arbitration begins to
determine which WAP device will distribute the master configuration to the rest of
the members of the cluster.
periodic advertisements every 10 seconds to announce its presence. If there are
other WAP devices that match the criteria for the cluster, arbitration begins to
determine which WAP device will distribute the master configuration to the rest of
the members of the cluster.
The following rules apply to Single Point Setup cluster formation and arbitration:
•
For existing Single Point Setup clusters, whenever the administrator
updates the configuration of any member of the cluster, the configuration
change is propagated to all members of the cluster, and the configured
WAP device assumes control of the cluster.
updates the configuration of any member of the cluster, the configuration
change is propagated to all members of the cluster, and the configured
WAP device assumes control of the cluster.
•
When two separate Single Point Setup clusters join into a single cluster,
then the latest modified cluster wins arbitration of the configuration and
overwrites and updates the configuration of all clustered WAP devices.
then the latest modified cluster wins arbitration of the configuration and
overwrites and updates the configuration of all clustered WAP devices.
•
If a WAP device in a cluster does not receive advertisements from a WAP
device for more than 60 seconds (for example, if the device loses
connectivity to other devices in the cluster), the device is removed from the
cluster.

connectivity to other devices in the cluster), the device is removed from the
cluster.
•
If a WAP device in Single Point Setup mode loses connectivity, it is not
immediately dropped from the cluster. If it regains connectivity and rejoins
the cluster without having been dropped, and configuration changes were
made to that device during the lost connectivity period, the changes are
propagated to the other cluster members when connectivity resumes.

the cluster without having been dropped, and configuration changes were
made to that device during the lost connectivity period, the changes are
propagated to the other cluster members when connectivity resumes.
•
If a WAP device in a cluster loses connectivity, is dropped, later rejoins the
cluster, and configuration changes were made in the during the lost
connectivity period, the changes are propagated to the device when it
rejoins. If there are configuration changes in both the disconnected device
and the cluster, then the device with the greatest number of changes and,
secondarily, the most recent change, will be selected to propagate its
configuration to the cluster. (That is, if WAP1 has more changes, but WAP2
has the most recent change, WAP1 is selected. If they have an equal
number of changes, but WAP2 has the most recent change, then WAP2 is
selected.)

Operation of a Device Dropped From a Single Point Setup
When a WAP device that was previously a member of a cluster becomes
disconnected from the cluster, the following guidelines apply:
