Parameter Description Range Default
index channel. The denser the AP deployment, the lower
this value should be. Recommended value is 10.
load-aware-scan-
threshold
Load aware ARM preserves network resources during
periods of high traffic by temporarily halting ARM
scanning if the load for the AP gets too high.
The Load Aware Scan Threshold is the traffic
throughput level an AP must reach before it stops
scanning. The supported range for this setting is 0-
20000000 bytes/second. (Specify 0 to disable this
feature.) 1250000
bytes/sec-
ond
max-tx-power
Maximum effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP)
from 3 to 33 dBm in 3 dBm increments. You may also
specify a special value of 127 dBm for regulatory
maximum to disable power adjustments for
environments such as outdoor mesh links. This value
takes into account both radio transmit power and
antenna gain.
Higher power level settings may be constrained by
local regulatory requirements and AP capabilities. 3, 6, 9, 12, 15,
18, 21, 24, 27,
30, 33, 127 127 dBm
min-scan-time
Minimum number of times a channel must be
scanned before it is considered for assignment. The
supported range for this setting is 0-2,147,483,647
scans. Best practices are to configure a Minimum
Scan Time between 1-20 scans.
Default: 8 scans 1-2,147,483,647
Recommended
Values: 1-20 8 scans
min-tx-power Minimum effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP)
from 3 to 33 dBm in 3 dBm increments. You may also
specify a special value of 127 dBm for regulatory
minimum. This value takes into account both radio
transmit power and antenna gain.
Higher power level settings may be constrained by
local regulatory requirements and AP capabilities. 3, 6, 9, 12, 15,
18, 21, 24, 27,
30, 33, 127 9 dBm
mode-aware
If enabled, ARM will turn APs into Air Monitors (AMs)
if it detects higher coverage levels than necessary.
This helps avoid higher levels of interference on the
WLAN. Although this setting is disabled by default,
you may want to enable this feature if your APs are
deployed in close proximity (e.g. less than 60 feet
apart). — disabled
multi-band-scan
When enabled, single-radio APs try to scan across
bands for rogue AP detection. — enabled
no
Negates any configured parameter. — —
noise-threshold Maximum level of noise in a channel that triggers a
channel change (-dBm). 0-2,147,483,647
Recommended
Values:
0-80 -dBm 75 -dBm
noise-wait-time Minimum time in seconds the noise level has to
exceed the Noise Threshold before it triggers a
channel change. 1-3600 seconds 120 seconds
