Zusammenfassung:	One embodiment is directed to a system comprising a plurality of controllers and a plurality of radio points that provide wireless service to user equipment. The system is configured to serve a plurality of logical cells. The system is configured so that each logical cell is served by a respective group of the radio points. The system is configured to associate each group of radio points with a respective one or more controllers in order for the respective one or more controllers to serve the respective logical cell associated with that group of radio points while associated therewith. The system is configured to use a protection scheme in which the respective group of radio points that serves each logical cell does not change in the event of a fail-over that causes the one or more controllers associated with that group of radio points to change.
