Hi everyone,
I have a setup of 5 non-root bridges going to a root bridge.
We setup a second root bridge on the same pole for redundancy (same config, minus hostname and ip address)
I split up the non-roots, so that the two important ones would go to root-A and the three other go to root-B
example:
config t
interface dot11radio 0
parent 1 [root-A radio MAC]
parent 2 [root-B radio MAC]
parent timeout 180
I set it to three minute timeout in case the AP rebooted on accident, it comes back up after 1 min 45 sec, so it would cause the non-root to still keep trying, and eventually reassociate.
I have all of the non-roots configured correctly, but when I reboot root-A, they ALL go to root-B after about 10-15 seconds, and vice versa from root-B to root-A from reboot testing.
Everything I have found online and in the config guides etc., says that this SHOULD work.
I need to get this to work because everytime it jumps from root-A to root-B (vice versa) because the link quality / least congested root, the non-root will get kill the link on the other end where users are. This has been going on for some time and most of the non-roots eventually just keep flip-flopping around eventually.
I am looking forward to any replies , thanks !!!
