1.1.12 Radius Time-Based Authentication
An external server maintains a users and groups database used by the access point for access
permissions. Various kinds of access policies can be applied to each group. Individual groups can be
configured with their own time-based access policy. Each group’s policy has a user defined interval
defining the days and hours access is permitted. Authentication requests for users belonging to the
group are honored only during these defined hourly intervals.
For more information on defining access point access policies by group, see
Defining User Access
Permissions by Group on page 6-76
.
1.1.13 QBSS Support
Each access point radio can be configured to optionally allow the access point to communicate
channel usage data to associated devices and define the beacon interval used for channel utilization
transmissions. The QBSS load represents the percentage of time the channel is in use by the access
point and the access point’s station count. This information is very helpful in assessing the access
point’s overall load on a channel, its availability for additional device associations and multi media
traffic support.
For information on enabling QBSS and defining the channel utilization transmission interval, see
Configuring the 802.11a or 802.11b/g Radio on page 5-56
