Notes
3. Review and provide the following information in the Settings area. Devices with dual radios display radio-
specific settings in the Slot A and Slot B area. If a device is dual-radio capable but only has one device
installed, AWMS manages that device as if it were a single slot device.
Note: Devices from different vendors have different RF settings and capabilities. The fields in the Settings section of the APs/
Devices > Manage page are context-sensitive and only present the information relevant for the particular device vendor and
model.
