If spectrum load balancing is enabled in a
802.11a radio profile and a spectrum load
balancing domain
isalso defined, AP radios
belonging to the same spectrum load
balancing domain will be considered part of
the same RF neighborhood for load balancing,
and will not recognize RF neighborhoods
defined by the ARM feature.
spectrum-load-balancing
The Spectrum Load Balancing feature helps
optimize network resources by balancing clients
across channels, regardless of whether the AP or
the controller is responding to the wireless clients'
probe requests.
If enabled, the controller compares whether or not
an AP has more clients than its neighboring APs
on other channels. If an AP’s client load is at or
over a predetermined threshold as compared to its
immediate neighbors, or if a neighboring Dell AP
on another channel does not have any clients, load
balancing will be enabled on that AP. This feature
is disabled by default.
NOTE: The spectrum load balancing feature
available in ArubaOS 3.4.x and later releases
completely replaces the AP load balancing feature
available in earlier versions of ArubaOS. When
you upgrade to ArubaOS 3.4.x or later, you must
manually configure the spectrum load balancing
settings, as the AP load balancing feature can no
longer be used, and any previous AP load
balancing settings will not be preserved. — disabled
spectrum-monitoring
Issue this command to turn an W-AP130 series in
ap-mode into a hybrid AP. An AP in hybrid AP
mode will continue to serve clients as an access
point while it scans and analyzes spectrum
analysis data for a single radio channel. For further
details on using hybrid APs and spectrum monitors
to examine the radio frequency (RF) environment in
which the Wi-Fi network is operating, refer to the
Spectrum Analysis chapter of the
Dell
PowerConnect W-Series ArubaOS User Guide.

spectrum-profile
<profile> Specify the rf spectrum profile used by hybrid APs
and spectrum monitors. This profile sets the
spectrum band and device ageout times used by a
spectrum monitor or hybrid AP radio. For details,
see
"rf spectrum-profile" on page 542 .

tpc-power
The transmit power advertised in the TPC IE of
beacons and probe responses. Range: 0-51 dBm 0-51 dBm 15 dBm
tx-power
Sets the initial transmit power (dBm) on which the
AP operates, unless a better choice is available
through either calibration or from RF Plan.
This parameter can be set from 0 to 51 in .5 dBm
increments, or set to the regulatory maximum
value of 127 dBm. 0-51 dBm, 127
dBm 14 dBm
