Parameter Description
Optimization ], which is globally effective for thin APs in all groups.
o Group - Selecting Group means that the load balance policy for current
group configured here takes effect.

Balance Mode - Selecting load balancing algorithm:
o
Disable - The load balancing policy will not be applied to the thin APs in
current group.
o
Users - The load balancing policy is based on the number of user clients
associated to the thin AP.
o Traffic - The load balancing policy is based on the traffic pressure on
the thin AP.

Users Number Threshold - If the balance mode " Users " is selected set the
maximum number of user clients allowed to associate with the thin AP here.
When the number of associated user clients reaches this threshold, any new
client attempting to associate with this thin AP will be rejected.

AP Users Number Difference - If the balance mode " Users " is selected, set
the maximum difference in the number of user clients allowed between two
thin APs here. When the difference touches this threshold, any new client
attempting to associate with the AP who has more users will be rejected.

Traffic Threshold - If the balance mode " Traffic " is selected, set the
maximum throughput threshold allowed in a thin AP here. When the traffic
in a thin AP reaches this threshold, any new client attempting to associate
with this thin AP will be rejected.

AP Traffic Difference - If the balance mode " Traffic " is selected, set the
maximum throughput difference allowed between two thin APs here. When
the traffic throughput difference reaches this threshold, any new client
attempting to associate with the AP who has heavier traffic will be rejected.
LAN Port Setting Thin AP has more than one Ethernet ports, one is for WLAN connecting to WLC, and
another is for LAN using. The LAN port of thin AP is configured here.

LAN Port VLAN - Allocate a VLAN to this LAN port of thin AP if the LAN
port connects to a device configured with VLAN.

LAN Port Central Switching - The traffic passing through this LAN port of
the thin AP can also be concentrated to WLC for centralized forwarding,
just like wireless client traffic.

LAN Port Portal Auth - The host connect to this LAN port of the thin AP
also will be authenticated by captive portal, just like a wireless client.
Spectrum Navigation The so-called “Spectrum Navigation” actually stands for the load balance between
two radio modules in the dual-band thin AP.

Enable Spectrum Navigation - Turn on the spectrum navigation function,
and balance the load between the radio modules according to the
following strategy:
o
Disable - No load balance for this AP group.
o
Users Number - Choose the difference in the number of users as the
strategy to balance the load between two radio modules in the
