Note
These extended UNII-2 channels in the 802.11a band do not appear in the channel list: 100, 104,
108, 112, 116, 132, 136, and 140. If you have Cisco Aironet 1520 series mesh access points in
the -E regulatory domain, you must include these channels in the DCA channel list before you
start operation. If you are upgrading from a previous release, verify that these channels are
included in the DCA channel list. To include these channels in the channel list, check the
Extended UNII-2 Channels
check box.
Step 12
If you are using Cisco Aironet 1520 series mesh access points in your network, you need to set the
4.9-GHz channels in the 802.11a band on which they are to operate. The 4.9-GHz band is for public
safety client access traffic only. To choose a 4.9-GHz channel, check its check box in the Select column.
To exclude a channel, uncheck its check box.

under Most
Recent Traps. The trap provides the MAC address of the radio that changed channels, the
previous channel and the new channel, the reason why the change occurred, the energy before
and after the change, the noise before and after the change, and the interference before and after
the change.
