Chapter 10 Device HA The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 45 Configuration > Device HA > Active-Passive Mode LABEL DESCRIPTION Show / Hide Advanced Settings Click this button to display a greater or lesser number of configuration fields. Device Role Select the device HA role that the NWA3000-N series AP plays in the virtual router. Choices are: Master - This NWA3000-N series AP is the master NWA3000-N series AP in the virtual router. This NWA3000-N series AP uses the virtual IP address for each monitored interface. Note: Do not set this field to Master for two or more NWA3000-N series APs in the same virtual router (same cluster ID). Backup - This NWA3000-N series AP is a backup NWA3000-N series AP in the virtual router. This NWA3000-N series AP does not use any of the virtual IP addresses. Priority This field is available for a backup NWA3000-N series AP. Type the priority of the backup NWA3000-N series AP. The backup NWA3000-N series AP with the highest value takes over the role of the master NWA3000-N series AP if the master NWA3000-N series AP becomes unavailable. The priority must be between 1 and 254. (The master interface has priority 255.) Enable Preemption This field is available for a backup NWA3000-N series AP. Select this if this NWA3000-N series AP should become the master NWA3000-N series AP if a lower-priority NWA3000-N series AP is the master when this one is enabled. (If the role is master, the NWA3000-N series AP preempts by default.) Cluster Settings Cluster ID Type the cluster ID number. A virtual router consists of a master NWA3000-N series AP and all of its backup NWA3000-N series APs. If you have multiple NWA3000-N series AP virtual routers on your network, use a different cluster ID for each virtual router. Authentication Select the authentication method the virtual router uses. Every interface in a virtual router must use the same authentication method and password. Choices are: None - this virtual router does not use any authentication method. Text - this virtual router uses a plain text password for authentication. Type the password in the field next to the radio button. The password can consist of alphanumeric characters, the underscore, and some punctuation marks and it can be up to eight characters long. IP AH (MD5) - this virtual router uses an encrypted MD5 password for authentication. Type the password in the field next to the radio button. The password can consist of alphanumeric characters, the underscore, and some punctuation marks and it can be up to eight characters long. 132 NWA3000-N Series User's Guide
