•Virtual IP addresses that have been reserved to be used for the VRRP instances

3.Navigate to the Configuration > Advanced> Switch > General > VRRP page.

4.Enter the parameters shown in Table 11-1. For this topology, the following values are recommended:

•Priority: Set the master to 100 and set the local to 110

•Enable pre-emption

•Configure master up time or master state tracking on the master with an add value of 20

5.Configure the values in the respective fields and click Done to enter the values.

6.Click Apply to apply the configuration and add the VRRP instance.

Note: The master WFS709TP is configured with the number of VRRP instances equal to the number of local switches to which the master is providing redundancy.

Configure the APs with the appropriate Virtual-IP address depending on which WFS709TP is expected to control the AP. As an example, the administrator can configure all APs on floor 1 to be controlled by local WFS709TP 1, all APs on floor 2 to be controlled by local WFS709TP 2, and so on. All the local WFS709TPs are backed up by the master WFS709TP, as shown above. In such a case, configure all APs on floor 1 to be controlled by the Virtual IP address of the VRRP between local WFS709TP 1 and master, and so on. See “Configuring APs” on page 10-3.
