ABSTRACT:
A network includes a plurality of logical access entities. Each access entity includes one or more communication interfaces. The network further includes a plurality of logical node entities. Each logical node entity includes one or more communication interfaces that are configured to wirelessly communicate in a redundant manner with any of the logical access entities. In an embodiment, a communication degradation in the network is assessed, and the network is configured as a function of that assessment to provide fault tolerance within the network.
