How often? <BR /><BR /> Related: How many wifi clients do you normally have on a daily (business hours) basis? <BR /><BR /> Please add any additional information you believe is helpful to this topic.

(and how'd that work out...) <BR /><BR /> We do have a limited autonomous WLAN feature coming in 9.7 which makes this more robust and easier to deal with. And combined with a support contract for quick delivery of a replacement, this offers good backup protection for most networks. But if you need high availability..redundant controllers are the way to go. <BR /><BR /> -K Sat, 23 Nov 2013 20:52:09 GMT https://community.ruckuswireless.com/t5/ZoneDirector/Customer-quot-real-life-quot-experiences-with-a-redundant-fail/m-p/17947#M3792 keith_redfield 2013-11-23T20:52:09Z
