Viewing
Current
Channel
Assignments
and
Setting
Locks
The
Current
Channel
Assignments
section
shows
a
list
of
all
access
points
in
the
cluster
by
IP
Address.
The
display
shows
the
band
on
which
each
AP
is
broadcasting
(a/b/g/n),
the
current
channel
used
by
each
AP,
and
an
option
to
lock
an
AP
on
its
current
radio
channel
so
that
it
cannot
be
re
‐
assigned
to
another.
The
following
table
provides
details
about
Current
Channel
Assignments.
Viewing
the
Last
Proposed
Set
of
Changes
The
Proposed
Channel
Assignments
shows
the
last
channel
plan.
The
plan
lists
all
access
points
in
the
cluster
by
IP
Address,
and
shows
the
current
and
proposed
channels
for
each
AP.
Locked
channels
will
not
be
re
‐
assigned
and
the
optimization
of
channel
distribution
among
APs
will
take
into
account
the
fact
that
locked
APs
must
remain
on
their
current
channels.
APs
that
are
not
locked
may
be
assigned
to
different
channels
than
they
were
previously
using,
depending
on
the
results
of
the
plan.

automated
channel
management
plans
will
not
re
‐
assign
the
AP
to
a
different
channel
as
a
part
of
the
optimization
strategy.
Instead,
APs
with

will
be
factored
