Super Root Selection
The access point with the highest assigned root priority
becomes the super root whenever it is powered on and
active. If the current super root goes offline, the remaining
candidates negotiate to determine which one becomes the
new super root. This normally takes about 1 minute.
The super root is always the access point with the highest
root priority (other than 0). If two or more access points
have the same root priority, the unit with the highest
Ethernet address becomes the super root.
Super Root Redundancy
For redundancy, two or three access points should have a
nonzero root priority. All other access points should have a
root priority of 0. (Redundancy is the ability of another
access point to take over if the super root goes offline.)
You should do the following:
"
Configure one access point as a primary super root
(with the highest root priority).
"
Configure one or two access points as “fallback” super
roots (with lower priority).
"
Configure remaining access points with a root priority
of 0.
[Global Radio]
" NOTE: Use the same [Global Radio] settings in all super root candidates.
[Global Radio] distributes network-wide configuration
parameters. Settings in the super root are distributed
throughout the network. Options are:
Set Globally Value
UHF Rfp Threshold 70
UHF Frag Size 250
Falcon Frag Size 250
Awake Time 0
