Configuring Rf Properties; Rf Configuration Commands - Extreme Networks Summit 300-48 Software User's Manual

Wireless Networking
7 Configure a specific channel (determined from a site survey), if desired, on each interface. If you do
not configure a specific channel, the switch auto-selects the channel with the least interference.
8 Connect the Altitude 300 wireless port.
After this process is complete, clients can access your network through the Altitude 300 wireless port.

Configuring RF Properties

RF profiles allow you to group RF parameters for access using a single CLI command. The following
rules apply for RF profiles:
• After you have defined a profile, subsequent changes automatically apply to all ports assigned to
that profile.
• Each RF profile applies to a specific interface (A or G), so changing a profile only affects the
specified interface.
• Each RF profile applies only to ports that support the same version of the Altitude 300 wireless port,
thereby preventing problems with version/capability mismatches.
• Each Summit 300-48 switch ships with default profiles for each supported wireless port.

to the specified value. Changes take effect
immediately and are propagated to all ports that
share this profile. All failures are written to the
syslog. See Table 20 for <property> values.
Allowed Values Description
1-32 characters Identified as a character string. Default values are
per-channel (A | G); string names reflect this.

milliseconds. A beacon is a packet broadcasted by
the wireless port to synchronize the wireless network.
