8. Define or override the following radio configuration Properties:
9. Set or override the following profile Radio Settings for the selected radio.
Description Provide or edit a description (1 - 64 characters in length) for the radio that helps
differentiate it from others with similar configurations.
Admin Status Either select the Active or Shutdown radio button to define this radio’s
availability. When defined as Active, the access point is operational and
available for client support, Shutdown renders it unavailable.
Radio QoS Policy Use the drop-down menu to specify an existing QoS policy to apply to the
access point radio in respect to its intended radio traffic. If there’s no existing
QoS policy suiting the radio’s intended operation, select the
Create icon.
Association ACL Use the drop-down menu to specify an existing Association ACL policy to apply
to the radio. An Association ACL is a policy-based
Access Control List (ACL)
that either prevents or allows wireless clients from connecting to an access
point radio. An ACL is a sequential collection of permit and deny conditions
that apply to packets. When a packet is received on an interface, the fields in
the packet are compared to applied ACLs to verify the packet has the required
permissions needed to be forwarded. If a packet does not meet any of the ACL
criteria, the packet is dropped. Select the
Create icon to define a new
Association ACL.
RF Mode Set the mode to either 2.4 GHz WLAN or 5 GHz WLAN support depending on
the radio’s intended client support. Set the mode to Sensor if using the radio
for rogue device detection.
Lock Radio Band Select the radio button to lock Smart RF calibration functions for this radio. The
default setting is disabled.
Channel Use the drop-down menu to select the channel of operation for the radio. Only
a trained installation professional should define the radio channel.Select
Smart for the radio to scan non-overlapping channels to listen for beacons from
other access points. Once channels are scanned, the radio selects the channel
with the fewest access points. In case of multiple access points on the same
channel, it will select the channel with the lowest average power level. The
default value is Smart.
Transmit Power Set the transmit power of the selected access point radio. If using a dual or a
three radio model AP-7131, each radio should be configured with a unique
transmit power in respect to its intended client support function. A setting of
0 defines the radio as using Smart RF to determine output power. 20 dBm is
the default value.
