Description
This value determines how often spectrum load balancing
calculations are made (in seconds). The default value is 30
seconds.
A cap for an radio's maximum equivalent isotropic radiated
power (EIRP). Even if the regulatory approved maximum for
a given channel is higher than this EIRP cap, the AP radio
using this profile will advertise only this capped maximum
EIRP in its radio beacons.
Define a spectrum load balancing domain to manually
create RF neighborhoods.
This option creates RF neighborhood information for
networks that have disabled Adaptive Radio Management
(ARM) scanning and channel assignment.
If spectrum load balancing is enabled in a 802.11a radio
l
profile but the spectrum load balancing domain is not
defined, ArubaOS uses the ARM feature to calculate RF
neighborhoods.
If spectrum load balancing is enabled in a 802.11a radio
l
profile and a spectrum load balancing domain isalso
defined, AP radios belonging to the same spectrum load
balancing domain will be considered part of the same
RF neighborhood for load balancing, and will not
recognize RF neighborhoods defined by the ARM
feature.
The channel reuse feature can operate in either of the
following three modes; static, dynamic or disable. (This
feature is disabled by default.)
Static mode: This mode of operation is a coverage-
l
based adaptation of the Clear Channel Assessment
(CCA) thresholds. In the static mode of operation, the
CCA is adjusted according to the configured
transmission power level on the AP, so as the AP
transmit power decreases as the CCA threshold
increases, and vice versa.
Dynamic mode: In this mode, the Clear Channel
l
Assessment (CCA) thresholds are based on channel
loads, and take into account the location of the
associated clients. When you set the Channel Reuse
This feature is automatically enabled when the wireless
medium around the AP is busy greater than half the
time. When this mode is enabled, the CCA threshold
adjusts to accommodate transmissions between the AP
its most distant associated client.
Disable mode: This mode does not support the tuning of
l
the CCA Detect Threshold.
RX Sensitivity Tuning Based Channel Reuse Threshold, in -
dBm.
If the Rx Sensitivity Tuning Based Channel reuse feature is
set to static mode, this parameter manually sets the AP's Rx
sensitivity threshold (in -dBm). The AP will filter out and
ignore weak signals that are below the channel threshold
signal strength.
If the value is set to zero, the feature will automatically
determine an appropriate threshold
