WFS709TP ProSafe Smart Wireless Switch Software Administration Manual
Local WFS709TP redundancy refers to providing redundancy for a WFS709TP such that the APs under its control failover to a backup WFS709TP if their master WFS709TPr becomes unavailable. Local WFS709TP redundancy is provided by running VRRP between a pair of WFS709TPs.
Note: The two WFS709TPs need to be connected on the same broadcast domain (or 
Layer 2 connected) for VRRP operation, and both should be running the same
firmware version.
The APs are then configured to connect to the VIP configured for the VRRP instance.
Configuring Local WFS709TP Redundancy
To configure redundancy for a local WFS709TP:
1.Collect the following information needed to configure local WFS709TP redundancy:
•VLAN ID on the two local WFS709TPs that are on the same Layer 2 network and will be used to configure VRRP
•Virtual IP address to be used for the VRRP instance
2.Navigate to the Configuration > Advanced> Switch > General > VRRP page on the browser interface for each of the local WFS709TPs. Click Add to create a VRRP instance.

3.Enter the VRRP parameters for the VRRP instance.
