Stopping/Starting Automatic Channel Assignment; Figure 37: Channel Management - D-Link DWL-8600AP Administrator's Manual

D-Link UAP
To configure and view the channel assignments for the cluster members, click the Channel Management tab.
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.

TOPPING TARTING
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.)
Note: The proposed channel assignment will not take effect if the Channel field on the Radio page is set to
auto. The channel must be set to a static channel.
