3. Refer to the following information within the MU Status tab:

Configuring self healing

The switch supports a feature called Self Healing that enables radios to take corrective action
when one or more radios fail. To enable the feature the user must specify radio neighbors that
would self heal if either one goes down. The neighbor radios do not have to be of the same type.
Therefore, an 11bg radio can be the neighbor of a 11a radio and either of them can self heal when
one of them fails.

The switch initiates self healing when it looses communication with the Access Port or when
another radio (configured in detector mode) informs the switch a particular radio is not
transmitting beacons.

To configure self-healing on the switch:

factory and cannot be modified.
