Abstract

Implementations of the present disclosure relate to automatic AP failure recovery with assistance of a neighbor AP. A method includes detecting, by a first access point (AP), a failure at the first AP. The method further includes transmitting, by the first AP to a second AP, a query about an operating status of the second AP. The first AP then receives, from the second AP, a response to the query, the response indicating the operating status of the second AP. The method also includes determining, by the first AP and based at least in part on the operating status of the second AP, that the failure is not indicative of an event also impacting the second AP. The method further includes utilizing, by the first AP, the second AP to assist with recovery from the failure.
