Manages settings for the 802.11k protocol. The 802.11k protocol allows APs and
clients to dynamically query their radio environment and take appropriate
connection actions. For example, in a 802.11k network if the AP with the strongest
signal reaches its CAC (Call Admission Control) limits for voice calls, then on-hook
voice clients may connect to an under utilized AP with a weaker signal. You can
configure the following options in 802.11k profile:
Enable or disable 802.11K support on the AP
l
Forceful disassociation of on-hook voice clients
l
Measurement mode for beacon reports.
