Balancing
Use this section to configure wireless network traffic load balancing between the
managed APs in this group.
Note: Load balancing is not supported on the radio which is working in root AP or
Mode Select a mode by which load balancing is carried out.
Select By Station Number to balance network traffic based on the number of specified
stations connected to an AP.
Select By Traffic Level to balance network traffic based on the volume generated by
the stations connected to an AP.
Select By Smart Classroom to balance network traffic based on the number of
specified stations connected to an AP. The AP ignores association request and
authentication request packets from any new station when the maximum number of
stations is reached.
If you select By Station Number or By Traffic Level, once the threshold is crossed
(either the maximum station numbers or with network traffic), the AP delays
association request and authentication request packets from any new station that
attempts to make a connection. This allows the station to automatically attempt to
connect to another, less burdened AP if one is available.
Max Station Enter the threshold number of stations at which an AP begins load balancing its
