FlexConnect Groups Branch Site Backup Soloution

[teleprecense&wifi_admin]

Dear all,

we have a simple Branch Site Backup:

FlexConnect Group with 2 APs and a local Radius. No VLAN and no Flexconnect - LocalSwitching.

We need WiFi working if the dataline ist shutdown and there is no connection to WLC anymore.

If the Client was already connected it can work further. But if there is a new client the authentication will fail?

Can someone Help ?

Thanks,

Marco

Only in FlexConnect local switching is where devices can still stay connected.

Here is a doc that helps explain client connectivity in various states:

Thanks for reply. But at the Moment without activated local switching clients still Connection. Only new clients will fail.

the radius is Not only active on Backup. On normal mode AP is already connected there .
