You can set network utilization thresholds on the UAP to maintain the speed and performance of the wireless network as
clients associate and disassociate with the AP. The load balancing settings apply to both radios.
To configure load balancing and set limits and behavior to be triggered by a specified utilization rate of the access point, click
the
Load Balancing
tab and update the fields shown in the following figure.

Utilization for No New
Associations
Provide the percentage of network bandwidth utilization allowed on the radio before the AP stops
accepting new client associations.
The default is 0, which means that all new associations will be allowed regardless of the utilization
rate.
Note:
After you configure the load balancing settings, you must click

wireless clients will temporarily lose connectivity. We recommend that you change AP settings when WLAN traffic
is low.
