4. Certain wireless access points offer proprietary settings or advanced functionality that differ from prevailing
industry standards. If you use these APs in the device group, you may wish to take advantage of this
proprietary functionality.
To configure these settings, locate the proprietary settings areas on the Groups > Radio page and continue
with the additional steps in this procedure.
Note: Proprietary settings are only applied to devices in the group from the specific vendor and are not configured on devices
from vendors that do not support the functionality.

Table 62 describes the settings and default values.
Default Description
Auto Short-slot-time mechanism, if used on a pure 802.11g deployment, improves
WLAN throughput by reducing wait time for transmitter to assure clear channel
assessment.
5.5Mbps Sets the maximum data rate of the multicast data packets.
Enabled If enabled the 420 APs in the group will scan for rogues.
720 If rogue scanning is enabled, this setting controls the frequency with which
scans are conducted (in minutes). Frequent scans provide the greatest security,
but AP performance and throughput available to user devices may be impacted
modestly during a rogue scan.
NOTE: This setting only applies to Periodic scans.
350 Specifies the amount of time, in milliseconds, the AP should spend performing
the rogue scan. If the duration is set too high users may start to experience
connectivity issues.
NOTE: This setting only applies to periodic scans.
Periodic Specifies the Rogue Scanning mode. When set to Dedicated, users are unable to
associate to the AP.
