4.10 ACCESS LINK SAFE MODE/ BACKHAUL LINK SELF-HEALING
Access Link Safe Mode is for detecting the backhaul link integrity. If the AP loses its backhaul
connectivity, it forces the clients to re-associate with another AP by changing its SSID to a
default “C1n Safe Mode XXX”, where “XXX” is the MAC address of the 2.4GHz radio in
hexadecimal. This action can protect the client from connecting to a AP which has no backhaul
to the Internet end. Default Access Link Safe Mode is Disabled. Press the icon Enabled, C1n
CPE will work under Access Link Safe Mode.
In the case where multiple physical backhauls are available, the Backhaul Link Self-Healing
feature will switch to other backhaul if the current one goes down.
For example, when default
backhaul is set to 5GHz Radio, once the 5GHz Bridge link is broken down, C1n Super WiFi
CPE/AP will try Ethernet end as its new backhaul. Default setting is Disabled. After enabled the
Backhaul Link Self-Healing, Default Backhaul Link can be configured.
Three different Ping Host can be added to the list for monitoring the connectivity. If either
Access Link Safe Mode or Backhaul Link Self-Healing is enabled, the AP will ping those
specified hosts periodically at the Ping Interval configured.
