Re-elect Controller

Devices

Use the Controller Re-election screen to identity available Access Point resources within a selected
RF Domain and optionally make some, or all, of the Access Points available to initiate tunnel
connections.

NOTE

Take care when selecting Access Points for controller re-election, as client connections may be
broken on upon re-election. Ensure an elected Access Point's client load can be compensated by
another Access Point in the same RF Domain.

To re-elect controller adoption resources for tunnel establishment:

NOTE

The Re-elect Controller tab is only available at the RF Domain level of the UI’s hierarchal tree and is
not available for individual controllers, service platforms and Access Points.

Select Operations.
