Load Balancing
The USRobotics Professional Access Point allows you to balance the distribution of wireless client connections across multiple access points. Using load balancing, you can prevent scenarios where a single access point in your network shows performance degradation because it is handling a disproportionate share of the wireless traffic.
Configuring Load Balancing
To configure load balancing, enable "Load Balancing" and set limits and behavior to be triggered by a specified utilization rate of the access point.
Note
- To view the current Utilization Rates for access points, click Cluster > Sessions on the Administration Web pages. (See Session Monitoring.)
- Even when clients are disassociated from an AP, the network will still provide continuous service to client stations if another access point is within range so that clients can re-connect to the network. Clients should automatically retry the AP they were originally connected to and other APs on the subnet. Clients who are disassociated from one AP should experience a seamless transition to another AP on the same subnet.
- Load Balancing settings apply to the AP load as a whole. When Guest access is enabled, the settings apply to both Internal and Guest networks together.
