Cli Commands; Confirming That Dfs Is Enabled - Cisco M10-RM Software Manual

Configuring Radio Channel Settings
The maximum legal transmit power is greater for some 5-GHz channels than for others. When it
Note
randomly selects a 5-GHz channel on which power is restricted, the access point automatically reduces
transmit power to comply with power limits for that channel.
Note Cisco recommends that you use the world-mode dot11d country-code configuration interface command
to configure a country code on DFS-enabled radios. The IEEE 802.11h protocol requires access points
to include the country information element (IE) in beacons and probe responses. By default, however,
the country code in the IE is blank. You use the world-mode command to populate the country code IE.

CLI Commands

The following sections describe CLI commands that apply to DFS.

Confirming that DFS is Enabled

Use the show controllers dot11radio1 command to confirm that DFS is enabled. The command also
includes indications that uniform spreading is required and channels that are in the non-occupancy
period due to radar detection.
This example shows a line from the output for the show controller command for a channel on which DFS
is enabled. The indications listed in the previous paragraph are shown in bold:
