Abstract
A local controller maintains a local database which stores information associated with a set of interfacing devices of a local-area network. The local database can include a database mirror for a remote database, of a remote controller, that stores information for a set of provisioned interfacing devices. When a remote controller hosting the remote database is offline, the local controller can maintain primary control of interfacing devices within the local area network. However, when the local controller determines that the remote controller has come online, the local controller can rescind primary control of interfacing devices within the local area network to the remote controller.
