4.6.1.3 Configuring 802.11.k Radio Resource Management
The dot11k screen allows you to enable 802.11k Radio Resource Management for MUs.
The RRM (WLAN Radio Resource Measurement) service enables MUs to understand the radio environment in which they
exist. It enables them to observe and gather data on radio link performance and on the radio environment there by enabling
adjustment of MUs operation to better suit the radio environment. The RRM capability needs to be advertised through
Beacons. The Wireless Switch shall send out a Beacon request to RRM capable MUs, and it should be able to process
received Beacon reports. The Beacon request is sent to RRM capable MUs in active mode with specified measurement
duration as and when they are triggered. If an MU refuses/ rejects/ does not send the report, then the request is retried
after an expiry of specified duration. In case of further refuse/reject, retry until a maximum retry limit. The Maximum
Beacon requests sent out to an MU in this case are limited to three.
To enable 802.11k on an MU:
