WAC720 behavior when lost connection to controller
Not seeing a clear answer. If a WAC720 looses communication to the controller (WC7500) what behavior occurs? Will it loose function immediately? Can it continue to handle traffic just no managment...
Hi,
When the WAC720 looses connectivity to the controller (WC7500), it will still serve the existing clients until 30 Mins. In this time it will not accept the new client associations. Within 30 mins if the communication resumes then users will be able to connect the new clients and the data path will work fine. If the communication doesn't resume for 30 mins, it will bringdown all the network interfaces and all the existing wireless clients will drop their connection.
