9. To set the density level for your environment, move the Density Level slider to 0,
1, 2, 3, or 4.
As you move the slider, the selected density level is mapped to a corresponding
WiFi mode, beacon rate, minimum legacy rate, and minimum MCS rate. The available
settings depend on the WiFi mode that you select for the radio (see Change the
WiFi mode for a radio on page 89). By default, the WiFi mode for each radio is 11ax.
The density level for the WiFi network is based on the following interdependent
components, for which a setting is assigned by the position of the slider but which
you cannot set individually:
• Density of the WiFi clients: In the default 11ax WiFi mode for the radios, the
setting can be very low, low, medium, high, or very high, depending on the
position of the slider.
• Compatibility with WiFi modes for legacy clients: In the default 11ax WiFi
mode for the radios, the setting can be as follows:
- 2.4 GHz: 802.11b/g/n/ax, which supports 802.11b clients, or 802.11g/n/ax,
which does not.
-
5 GHz: 802.11a/n/ac/ax, which supports all types of clients in the 5 GHz radio
band in any position of the slider.
• Overall performance for the WiFi clients: In the default 11ax WiFi mode for
the radios, the setting can be reduced, moderate, good, very good, or optimal,
depending on the position of the slider.
• WiFi coverage: In the default 11ax WiFi mode for the radios, the setting can be
very narrow, narrow, average, wide, or very wide, depending on the position of
the slider.
Note: The help text in the local browser UI provides a table with detailed information
about how the WiFi mode of a radio affects these components and how these
components depend on each other.
