Embodiment Construction

[0019] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention, and to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings The program is described in further detail.

[0020] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of an application scenario of a method for wireless access point backup according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0021] like figure 1 As shown, the scenario includes: AC, AP, STA (Station, wireless terminal) and SW (Switch, switch). Among them, the shown AP is divided into two areas where AP1 and AP2 are respectively deployed and covered to provide wireless services for STAs in the covered area; the shown AC is connected to AP1 and AP2 through SW, and its managemen...

Abstract

The invention provides a wireless access point (AP) backup method and system. The method is applied to a wireless network system. The wireless network system separately deploys at least two APs in a coverage area of each wireless AP, starts any AP in the at least two APs as a primary AP to provide a wireless access service, and starts at least one AP other than the primary AP in the at least two APs as a standby AP. The method comprises the following steps: the standby AP receives a wireless frame; and if the standby AP does not receive a target wireless frame within the preset time, the standby AP provides the wireless access service. According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the standby AP monitors the wireless frame of the primary AP, and thus the standby AP can monitor the working state of the primary AP, and as the wireless frame has a relatively short transmitting cycle, the preset time for AP fault determination can be set to a shorter duration compared with a heartbeat message mode; and thus, after the primary AP has faults, the time consumed for starting the standby AP is relatively short, and relatively good user experience can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of communication technologies, and in particular to a method and system for wireless access point backup. Background technique [0002] In network communication, for wireless network construction and deployment, generally one AC (Wireless Access Point Controller, wireless access point controller) is used to uniformly manage multiple APs (Wireless Access Point, wireless access point), which can Use a certain number of APs and AC products to build a large wireless network coverage. The usage scenarios can be shopping malls, supermarkets, scenic spots, hotels, restaurants and entertainment, corporate offices, etc. When deploying APs in this way, one AP covers an area, and adjacent APs are separated by a certain distance. When one of the APs fails, the area covered by it will have no wireless signal, affecting user experience. So it is necessary to provide at least one AP next to each existing AP as a backup. ...
