Initiating Manual Channel Plan Assignments

If you specify Manual as the Channel Plan Mode on the Configuration tab, the Manual Channel Plan page allows you to
initiate the Channel Plan algorithm.
To manually run the channel plan adjustment feature, select the radio to update the channels on (5 GHz or 2.4 GHz) and
click Start.
The Current Status of the plan shows one of the following states:
• None: The channel plan algorithm has not been manually run since the last switch reboot.
• Algorithm In Progress: The channel plan algorithm is running.
• Algorithm Complete: The channel plan algorithm has finished running. A table displays to indicate proposed channel
assignments. Each entry shows the AP along with the current and new channel. To accept the proposed channel
change, click Apply. You must manually apply the channel plan for the proposed assignments to be applied.
• Apply In Progress: The switch is applying the proposed channel plan and adjusting the channel on the APs listed in the
table.
• Apply Complete: The algorithm and channel adjustment are complete.
After the channel plan runs, a table shows any APs that the algorithm recommends for new channel assignments. The
current channel shows the current operating channel, and the new channel shows the proposed channel. To apply the new
channels, click Apply. If no APs appear after the algorithm is complete, the algorithm does not recommend any channel
changes.
It is possible for the network configuration to change between the time the automatic channel selection runs and the time
you attempt to apply the proposed channel assignments.
The channel will fail to be applied to an AP if one of the following conditions exist:
• The AP has failed.
• The radio on the AP has been disabled through a profile update.
• The channel is not valid for the radio mode.
