Configuring Smart RF Policy
The ExtremeCloud Appliance RF Management policy depends on your AP model. ExtremeWireless
WiNG APs and AP5xx support Smart RF as the RF Management policy. ExtremeCloud Appliance is
installed with a default Smart RF policy.
You can modify the default policy or create a new policy. Policies that are being used by a device group
cannot be deleted, but if the policy is not being used, you can delete it.
Note
Smart RF is now supported on AP5xx for either a Centralized site or Distributed site. Only one
Smart RF Policy can be used per site.
To configure Smart RF:
1 Go to Configure > Sites.
2 Select a Distributed site, then click Device Groups tab.
3 Select a device group or click Add.
The RF Management value is Smart RF for ExtremeWireless WiNG APs and AP5xx.
4 Select next to RF Management, to edit the Smart RF policy.
ExtremeCloud Appliance is installed with a default Smart RF policy. You can modify the default policy or
create a new policy, but you cannot delete a Smart RF policy.
Note
After modifying the default RF policy settings, if you need to return to the ExtremeCloud
Appliance initial settings, create a new Smart RF policy. New policies are comprised of the
Smart RF settings that are delivered with the initial ExtremeCloud Appliance installation. Click
to create a new policy.

Description
Defines the channel utilization level, measured as a percentage. If the
threshold is exceeded, ACS scans for a new operating channel for the
AP.
Defines the noise interference limit, measured in dBm. If the noise
interface exceeds this threshold, ACS scans for a new operating
channel for the AP.
Defines a period of time, in minutes, where the average values for DCS
Noise and Channel Occupancy are measured. If the average value for
either setting exceeds the defined threshold for that setting, then the
AP triggers Automatic Channel Scan (ACS).
Length of the delay (in seconds) before logging an alarm. Default
setting is 10 seconds.
Enable this setting to detect Bluetooth channels.
Enable this setting to detect Constant Wave channels.
