Introduction of RIPT
RIPT: When the link between the AP and AC is unstable and the tunnel established between the AP and the AC is disconnected, the AP can still provide wireless services. For the locally forwarded WLAN, the STA can still access the network and access local network resources. When the tunnel between the AP and the AC is re-established, users who are already online can continue to access the network without going offline.


Applied scenarios

Key points of configuration
1) Enable the RIPT function of the AP.
2) Configure the forwarding mode of the WLAN as local forwarding.
(1)  Create a WLAN and configure the forwarding mode as local forwarding.
Ruijie#configure terminal  

Ruijie(config)#wlan-config 1 ssid  

Ruijie(config-wlan)#tunnel local   //Configured as local forwarding, so that the communication of the STA is not interrupted after the AP is disconnected from the AC.

Ruijie(config-wlan)#exit
(2)  ap-group mapping wlan id and vlan id configuration
Ruijie(config)#ap-group group1   // Create AP group

Ruijie(config-ap-group)#interface-mapping 1 10   // Map the WLAN and VLAN to be deployed

Ruijie(config-ap-group)#exit
(3)  Configure the ap-group to which the AP belongs and enable RIPT
Ruijie(config)#ap-config ap1

Ruijie(config-ap)#ap-group group1   //Join the AP group, the AP joins the AP group to deploy the wlan configuration

Ruijie(config-ap)#ript enable   //Enable RIPT function
(4) Save the configuration
Ruijie(config-ap)#end  

Ruijie#write  
Verification
Check whether the AP has RIPT enabled
Ruijie#show ap-config summary ript-enable
