Embodiment Construction

[0050] When an AP fails, it is often necessary to log in to the AP for fault recovery. However, the failure of the AP sometimes results in the failure to obtain the IP address. At this time, the remote login through the AC cannot be accessed. At the same time, APs are usually installed in places that are not easy to reach, such as: roofs, utility poles, or subway tunnels, which makes it very difficult to use the serial port of the AP. Ultimately, maintenance and handling of such failure issues become extremely difficult.

[0051] The embodiment of the present invention provides a solution for handling faulty APs.

[0052] Specifically, an embodiment of the present invention provides an AP processing method, which is applied to the AP and the AC respectively. Please refer to figure 2 , the method includes the steps of:

[0053] Step 201, when the AP fails to obtain the IP address, it sends a wireless broadcast authentication message.

[0054] At present, after the AP devi...

Abstract

The invention provides an AP failure processing method, an AP device and an AC device. The method includes the first step of sending a wireless radio authentication message in case of failure of obtaining an IP address, the second step of sending an association request message to an AC through an neighboring AP when an authentication response message sent by the AC and transferred by the neighboring AP through the wireless network is received, wherein the authentication response message is sent aiming at a broadcasting authentication message, the third step of receiving an association response message sent by the AC and transferred by the neighboring AP through the wireless network, wherein the association response message contains an IP address distributed by the AC, and the fourth step of using the IP address to send a fault information message to the AC through the neighboring AP. According to the technical scheme, a fault AP can be quickly found and located.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication, in particular to an AP fault handling method, AP equipment and AC equipment. Background technique [0002] WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network, Wireless Local Area Network) technology is a popular technology in the field of communication today. This technology is widely used in various industries due to its low cost, easy deployment and easy operation. More or less Influence and change our life. [0003] At present, the mainstream networking mode of WLAN is AC (Access Controller, access controller) + Fit AP (Fit Access Point, thin access point). Please refer to figure 1 , a schematic diagram of a current mainstream WLAN networking. The AC and the Fit AP are connected through the LWAPP (Light Weight Access Point Protocol) or CAPWAP (Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Point) protocol. The key to LWAPP and CAPWAP connections is that the Fit AP must first obtain an I...
