7.1.3 Viewing SLP activity
In normal operations, the primary HiPath Wireless Controller registers as an SLP
service called ac_manager. The controller service directs the Wireless APs to the
appropriate HiPath Wireless Controller. During an outage, if the remaining HiPath
Wireless Controller is the secondary controller, It registers as the SLP service
ru_manager.
To view SLP activity:
1. From the main menu, click Wireless AP Configuration. The Wireless APs
page is displayed.
2. In the left pane, click AP Registration. The Wireless AP Registration page
is displayed.
3. To confirm SLP registration, click View SLP Registration. A pop-up page
displays the results of the diagnostic slpdump tool, to confirm SLP
registration.
7.1.4 Events and actions during a failover
If one of the HiPath Wireless Controllers in a pair fails, the connection between
the two HiPath Wireless Controllers is lost. This triggers a failover mode
condition, and a critical message is displayed in the information log of the
remaining HiPath Wireless Controller.
