Abstract

A method includes initiating, by an agent application of an access point, a communication connection to a self-organizing network controller via a particular communication path to the self-organizing network controller. The particular communication path is identified in a prioritized set of communication paths to the self-organizing network controller. The method includes receiving, at the access point, control data from the self-organizing network controller via the particular communication path. The control data includes an instruction for a station, the station in communication with the access point via a wireless local area network supported by the access point. The method also includes sending the instruction to the station from the access point via the wireless local area network. The instruction is executable by the station to cause the station to modify a data transmission rate of the station.
