Specify RF Management

You can configure centralized RF management for the basic profile group on the basic RF
Management screen. If you use advanced profile groups, you can use the advanced RF
Management screen to customize settings for each profile group. RF management optimizes
the channel allocation for access points based on clients, user data traffic, and the nearby RF
environment of access points.
The wireless controller periodically checks the radio neighborhood maps and detects
changes in the radio neighborhood maps or loss of connectivity to the controller by an access
point. When WLAN healing is used, if an access point goes down or loses connectivity, other
access points share its load to avoid a coverage hole. To do this, the other access points
increase their transmit power. WLAN healing is configured per security profile group and runs
between the access points sharing a common security configuration.
