Using CLI Commands to Enable Roaming

The following CLI commands are used to enable roaming:
•
•
In the Cisco 3205 5.0 GHz radio, the client listens first to make sure there is traffic on the channel before
transmitting the probe request. This process can take up to 3 seconds for a WMIC to re-associate to a
new AP. When the network is deployed with a single channel, the "mode" command will provide an
option for the Cisco 3205 radio to perform active scanning. The default value for this command is "2",
in which the WMIC will listen and then transmit for all the available channels. If the value is set to "1",
the WMIC will perform active scanning on the current active channel. If the WMIC is not associated to
a new AP, the WMIC will start listening and then transmit for the rest of the channels to identify new AP.
The mobile station scan <channel / frequency list> CLI command allows WMIC in 'client' mode to
restrict the number of channels that is scanned to locate the "Root" device. This reduces the roaming
time.
