Auto Failover Enable or disable Auto Failover. Auto Failover is used to automatically maintain the mesh network for the controller. With this feature enabled, the controller can automatically select an uplink AP for the isolated EAP to establish Wireless Uplink. Thus the controller will automatically select a new uplink AP for the mesh EAPs when the original uplink fails. Connectivity Detection Specify the method of Connection Detection. In a mesh network, the APs can send ARP request packets to a fixed IP address to test the connectivity. If the link fails, the status of these APs will change to Isolated. Auto (Recommended): Select this method and the mesh APs will send ARP request packets to the default gateway for the detection. Custom IP Address: Select this method and specify a desired IP address. The mesh APs will send ARP request packets to the custom IP address to test the connectivity. If the IP address of the AP is in different network segments from the custom IP address, the AP will use the default gateway IP address for the detection. Full-Sector DFS With this feature enabled, when radar signals are detected on current channel by one EAP, the other EAPs in the mesh network will be also informed. Then all EAPs in the mesh network will switch to an alternate channel. 4. Click Apply. 5. Go to Access Points > Pending and adopt the Root AP. Then the status of the Root AP will change into Connected. 6. Install the EAP that will uplink the Root AP wirelessly. Make sure the intended location is within the range of Root AP. The EAPs that is waiting for Wireless Uplink includes two cases: factory default EAPs and EAPs that has been managed by Omada Controller before. 1 ) For the factory default EAP, after powering on the device, the EAP will be in Pending (Wireless) status shown in the controller. Go to Access Points > Pending and adopt the EAPs in Pending (Wireless) status. 51

Auto Failover
Enable or disable Auto Failover.
Auto Failover is used to automatically maintain the mesh network for the
controller. With this feature enabled, the controller can automatically
select an uplink AP for the isolated EAP to establish Wireless Uplink. Thus
the controller will automatically select a new uplink AP for the mesh EAPs
when the original uplink fails.
Connectivity Detection
Specify the method of Connection Detection.
In a mesh network, the APs can send ARP request packets to a fixed IP
address to test the connectivity. If the link fails, the status of these APs will
change to Isolated.
Auto (Recommended):
Select this method and the mesh APs will send ARP
request packets to the default gateway for the detection.
Custom IP Address:
Select this method and specify a desired IP address.
The mesh APs will send ARP request packets to the custom IP address
to test the connectivity. If the IP address of the AP is in different network
segments from the custom IP address, the AP will use the default gateway
IP address for the detection.
Full-Sector DFS
With this feature enabled, when radar signals are detected on current
channel by one EAP, the other EAPs in the mesh network will be also
informed. Then all EAPs in the mesh network will switch to an alternate
channel.

5.
Go to
Access Points > Pending
and adopt the Root AP. Then the status of the Root AP will
change into Connected.
6.
Install the EAP that will uplink the Root AP wirelessly. Make sure the intended location is within
the range of Root AP. The EAPs that is waiting for Wireless Uplink includes two cases: factory
default EAPs and EAPs that has been managed by Omada Controller before.
1 )
For the factory default EAP, after powering on the device, the EAP will be in Pending (Wireless)
status shown in the controller. Go to
