Abstract
Methods and apparatus for supporting a data center relocation with regard to an access point are described. A primary gateway connection is established between the access point and a primary gateway in a first data center, and a secondary gateway connection is established between the access point and a secondary gateway in a second data center. A path switch request is sent via the secondary gateway connection. A DNS server sends an IP address corresponding to the second data center. The data center for the access point is switched from the first data center to the second data center. In some embodiments, the transition from the first data center to the second data center is in response to a detected communications failure. In other embodiments, the transition from the first data center to the second data center is due to scheduled maintenance.
