1.2.2 Backup NXC-8160

To ensure wireless Internet access availability, deploy one NXC-8160 as the main WLAN controller and the other NXC-8160 as the backup. Both NXC-8160s should be in the same network and have the same number of connected access points and use the same wireless settings (such as SSID, channel, IEEE 802.11 mode and security). If the main NXC-8160 fails, wireless clients can still access the Internet or wired network by connecting to the backup NXC-8160.
