Configuring Pico Cell Mode
Step 1
To disable the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network before changing pico cell mode parameters, enter this
command:
config
{
802.11a
|
802.11b
}
disable
Step 2
To enable pico cell mode, enter one of these commands:
•
config
{
802.11a
|
802.11b
}
picocell enable
—Enables pico cell mode version 1. This command is
designed for use with a specific application. Cisco recommends that you use the
config
{
802.11a
|
802.11b
}
picocell-V2 enable
command if you want to enable pico cell mode.
•
config
{
802.11a
|
802.11b
}
picocell-V2 enable
—Enables pico cell mode version 2. Use this
command if you want to adjust the pico cell mode parameters to optimize network performance in
high-density areas.
Step 3
If you enabled pico cell mode version 2 in
, follow these steps to configure the receive sensitivity
threshold, CCA sensitivity threshold, and transmit power parameters:
a.
To configure the receive sensitivity threshold, enter this command:
config advanced
{
802.11a
|
802.11b
}
receiver pico-cell-V2 rx_sense_threshold
min
max
current
b.
To configure the CCA sensitivity threshold, enter this command:
config advanced
{
802.11a
|
802.11b
}
receiver pico-cell-V2 cca_sense_threshold
min
max
current
c.
To configure the transmit power, enter this command:
config advanced
{
802.11a
|
802.11b
}
receiver pico-cell-V2 sta_tx_pwr
min
max
current
Step 4
If you enabled pico cell mode version 2 in
and you want to transmit a unicast IAPP high-density
frame request to a specific client, enter this command:
config advanced
{
802.11a
|
802.11b
}
receiver pico-cell-V2 send_iapp_req
client_mac
Step 5
To re-enable the 802.11a or 802.11b/g network, enter this command:
config
{
802.11a
|
802.11b
}
enable
Step 6
To save your settings, enter this command:
save config
Using the CLI to Debug Pico Cell Mode Issues
Use these commands if you experience any pico cell mode problems.
1.
To see the current status of pico cell mode, enter this command:
show
{
802.11a
|
802.11b
}
Information similar to the following appears:
802.11a Network.................................. Disabled
11nSupport....................................... Disabled
802.11a Low Band........................... Enabled
802.11a Mid Band........................... Enabled
802.11a High Band.......................... Enabled
