Setting an Uplink Priority

You can set an uplink priority by using the Instant UI or CLI.

2. Under Uplink Priority List, select the uplink, and click the icons at the bottom of the Uplink Priority List section,

to increase or decrease the priority. By default, the Eth0 uplink is set as a high priority uplink.

3. Click OK. The selected uplink is prioritized over other uplinks.

In the CLI

To set an uplink priority:

(Instant AP)(config)# uplink

(Instant AP)(uplink)# uplink-priority {cellular <priority> | ethernet <priority>|[port

<Interface-number> <priority>]|wifi <priority>}

(Instant AP)(uplink)# end

For example, to set a priority for Ethernet uplink:

(Instant AP)(uplink)# uplink-priority ethernet port 0 1

(Instant AP)(uplink)# end

(Instant AP)# commit apply

Enabling Uplink Preemption

The following configuration conditions apply to uplink preemption:

l Preemption can be enabled only when no uplink is enforced.

l When preemption is disabled and the current uplink goes down, the W-IAP tries to find an available uplink based

on the uplink priority configuration.

l When preemption is enabled and if the current uplink is active, the W-IAP periodically tries to use a higher priority

uplink, and switches to a higher priority uplink even if the current uplink is active.

You can enable uplink preemption using Instant UI or CLI.

In the Instant UI

1. Click the System > show advanced settings > Uplink. The Uplink tab contents are displayed.

2. Under Uplink Management, ensure that the Enforce Uplink is set to none.

3. Select Enabled from the Pre-emption drop-down list.

4. Click OK.

In the CLI

To enable uplink preemption:

(Instant AP)(config)# uplink

(Instant AP)(uplink)# preemption
