Full Redundancy with Master and Local controller

  • 1.  Full Redundancy with Master and Local controller

    Posted Jul 05, 2015 05:39 AM

    Hi All,

    Need some suggestion on following scenario.

    I have two master controller with master and standby backup config.

    Now I need to add one local controller with standby local.

    I am planning two add both local controller independently to master controller and after that I will built VRRP between them, so AP's will connect to the local controller VRRP and master will push config to both the controller independently.

    Am I doing it correctly ?

    Yes. That works. You can also consider using swag failover which is in 6.3


    Thanks,
    Tim

    I would use HA groups in 6.3 code or later and leverage the AP failover features vs. VRRP on the local controllers. 

     

    For the master controllers, you can continue to use VRRP

    Yes rana,

     

    You can continue with this model, you bring up VRRP between bot the Locals in order to create redundancy between Locals( LOcal-Standby Local), if needed also look at the load balancing among the Locals by configuring two VRRPs in addition to that try configure HA so that you can enable AP fast fail over. 

     

    Please feel free for any further queries on this.
