Title: Reyee or Ruijie AP redundancy mode? [Print this page] Author: grzegorz.jablon Time: 2024-1-23 17:11 Title: Reyee or Ruijie AP redundancy mode? Is it possible to connect both Reyee or Ruijie APs to two separate switches using an RJ45 cable? And if one switch fails, will the AP switch to the other?
Of course, in this case, the AP is powered externally from the power supply not using PoE. Author: chenchunyan@rui Time: 2024-1-23 18:49
Dear Grzegorz Jabłoński,
Really sorry for the late reply.
You can connect 2 APs to different swicthes. But you cannot realize the scenario. Author: iticianset@gmai Time: 2024-1-30 11:55
Connecting Reyee or Ruijie APs to two separate switches using RJ45 cables is possible, commonly known as dual-homing. However, for automatic failover, you'd typically need a network protocol like Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) or a switch with link aggregation capabilities. This ensures that if one switch fails, the other takes over seamlessly. Also, external power doesn't affect this process. Double-check AP and switch compatibility for the best results.
