Description
Coverage Hole Recovery
Note: Available for Smart RF policy only.
Determines radio power adjustments to react to holes in RF coverage
in an AP deployment area. Smart RF determines the radio power
adjustments required based on a reporting client’s signal to noise
(SNR) ratio. If a client’s SNR is above the administrator threshold, the
connected AP's transmit power increases until the noise rate falls
below the threshold. Coverage Hole Recovery is enabled for the
default Smart RF policy.
Neighbor Recovery
Determines coverage behavior when a radio failure is detected within
the coverage area. RF Management provides automatic recovery by
instructing neighboring APs to increase their transmit power to
compensate for the coverage loss. Neighbor recovery is enabled for
the default Smart RF policy.
Select the Channel and Power tab to modify radio channel and power settings.
