Unified Access Point Administrator's Guide
From this page, you can view channel assignments for all APs in the cluster and stop or start automatic channel
management. By using the Advanced settings on the page, you can modify the interference reduction potential
that triggers channel re‐assignment, change the schedule for automatic updates, and re‐configure the channel
set used for assignments.
Stopping/Starting Automatic Channel Assignment
By default, automatic channel assignment is disabled (off).
Note: Channel Management overrides the default cluster behavior, which is to synchronize radio
channels of all APs across a cluster. When Channel Management is enabled, the radio Channel is
not synced across the cluster to other APs.
• Click Start to resume automatic channel assignment.
When automatic channel assignment is enabled, the Channel Manager periodically maps radio channels
used by clustered access points and, if necessary, re‐assigns channels on clustered APs to reduce
interference (with cluster members or other APs outside the cluster).
• Click Stop to stop automatic channel assignment. (No channel usage maps or channel re‐assignments will
be made. Only manual updates will affect the channel assignment.)
