Gratuitous Probe Response (GPR) aids in conserving battery power in dual
mode phones that support cellular and WLAN modes of operation. GPR is
available on 5 GHz radios and is disabled by default. You can configure two GPR
settings:
• Period
This setting determines the time between GPR transmissions in Kusec
intervals from 10...255 (similar to the beacon period)
• Speed
The speed is the data rate used to transmit the GPR. Selecting a longer
period reduces the amount of RF bandwidth consumed by the GPR with
the possibility of shorter battery life. Selecting higher transmission speeds
also reduces the amount of bandwidth consumed but at the expense of a
smaller cell size.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable GPR and set its
parameters:
1. Enter global configuration mode.
configure terminal
2. Enter interface configuration mode for the 5 GHz radio interface.

3. Enable the Gratuitous Probe Response feature by using default period (10
Kusec) and speed (6.0 Mbps).
