The status is in one of the following states:
Not Polled—The switch has not attempted to contact the IP address in the L3/IP
Discovery list.
Polled—The switch has attempted to contact the IP address.
Discovered—The switch contacted the peer switch or AP with IP address in the L3/IP
Discovery list and has authenticated or validated the device.
Discovered - Failed—The switch contacted the peer switch or AP with IP address in the
L3/IP Discovery list and was unable to authenticate or validate the device.
If the device is an access point, an entry appears in the AP failure list with a failure reason.
For information about adding IP addresses to the IP Discovery list, see “Configuring IP
Addresses of Peers and APs in the Switch” on page 65.
Monitoring Peer Switch Status
The Peer Switch page provides information about other D-Link WLAN Controller Switches in
the network. To access the peer switch information, click Monitoring > Peer Switch.
Peer wireless switches within the same peer group exchange data about themselves, their
managed APs, and clients. The switch maintains a database with this data so you can view
information about a peer, such as its IP address and software version. If the switch loses
contact with a peer, all of the data for that peer is deleted.
