Select the radio button to enforce a client load balance distribution on this
WLAN. AP-7131, AP-6532 and AP-7161 model access points can support
256 clients per access point. An AP-6511 or AP-6521 model can support up
to 128 clients per access point. Therefore, client load balancing can be
enforced for the WLAN as more and more WLANs are deployed. This
setting is Enabled by default.
Define a value in either Seconds (0 and 10,000), Minutes (0 -166) or Hours
(0 -2) the access point uses to discover a client's band capabilities before
associating. The default is 24 seconds.
