Command Usage
Only the 802.11a interface supports the location setting. The 802.11g interface is fixed at
"Indoor" and is not configurable.
auto-refresh-rate
This command sets the scan interval for a radio. At the specified interval, the access point scans the airwaves
and collects beacons from nearby access points to select a channel. If there is no nearby access point, the
access point does not collect any beacons, but randomly selects a channel as follows:
• On the 802.11a radio, the access point selects any channel.
• On the 802.11b/g radio, the access point selects one of the three non-overlapping channels: 1,
6, or 11
If there are adjacent access points and the access points collect beacons, the access point selects the least
congested channel based on the RSSI.
The access point selects the appropriate transmit power based on the RSSI value of an access point on the
same and adjacent channels.
