Description
direct supervision of Dell Support.
Shows if the AP has enabled or disabled AP scanning of other channels.
The amount of time, in milliseconds, an AP will drift out of the current channel to scan
another channel.
Shows if Dell's VoIP Call Admission Control (CAC) prevents any single AP from
becoming congested with voice calls. If CAC is enabled, you should also enable VoIP
Aware Scan in the ARM profile, so the AP will not attempt to scan a different channel if
one of its clients has an active VoIP call.
When enabled, the AP will not scan if Power Save is active.
If Video Aware Scan is enabled in the ARM profile, the AP will not attempt to scan a
different channel if one of its clients has an active video session.
The coverage that the AP should try to achieve on its channel. The denser the AP
deployment, the lower this value should be.
The minimal coverage that the AP should try to achieve on its channel. The denser the
AP deployment, the lower this value should be.
The difference in the interference index between the new channel and current channel
must exceed this value for the AP to move to a new channel. The higher this value, the
lower the chance an AP will move to the new channel.
Time, in seconds, an AP backs off after requesting a new channel or power level.
The percentage of errors in the channel that triggers a channel change.
Time, in seconds, that the error rate has to maintain or surpass the error rate threshold
before it triggers a channel change.
Maximum level of noise (in -dBm) in a channel that triggers a channel change.
Time, in seconds, the noise has to be high to trigger a channel change.
Time, in seconds, that a channel must be scanned before it is considered for
assignment.
The traffic throughput level an AP must reach before it stops scanning, in bytes/second.
A value of 0 to disables this feature.
If enabled, ARM will turn APs into Air Monitors (AMs) if it detects higher coverage levels
than necessary. This helps avoid higher levels of interference on the WLAN. Although
this setting is disabled by default, you may want to enable this feature if your APs are
deployed in close proximity (e.g. less than 60 feet apart).
This parameter defines the scan mode for the AP.
all-reg-domain: The AP scans channels within all regulatory domains. This is the
l
default setting.
reg-domain:Limit the AP scans to just the regulatory domain for that AP.
