7. (Optional) Configure
Background scanning
.
Background scanning allows the device to scan for nearby access points and to move between
access points that have the same SSID that is configured for the client connection, based on
the signal strength of the access points.
a. Click to expand
Background scanning
.
b. Click
Enable background scanning
to enable.
c. For
Scan threshold
, enter a value in dB that is used to determine the scanning frequency.
The allowed value is an integer between-
113
and
0
.
The
Scan threshold
works with the
Short interval
and
Long interval
options to
determine how often the device should scan for available access points:
n
If the signal strength from the access point to which the client is currently
connected is below the
Scan threshold
, it will use the
Short interval
to determine
how often to scan for available access points.
n
If the signal strength from the access point to which the client is currently
connected is stronger the
Scan threshold
, it will use the
Long interval
to
determine how often to scan for available access points.
n
If
Short interval
and
Long interval
are set to the same value,
Scan threshold
is
ignored. For example, the default configuration has both
Short interval
and
Long
interval
set to
1
second, which means that the device will scan for access points
once per second regardless of the
Scan threshold
.
d. For
Short interval
, type the number of seconds to wait between scans for access points,
when the signal strength from the access point to which the client is currently connected is
below the
Scan threshold
.
e. For
Long interval
, type the number of seconds to wait between scans for access points,
when the signal strength from the access point to which the client is currently connected is
stronger than the
Scan threshold
.
