Channel Management
Cisco WAP571/E Administration Guide 180
12
Channel management overrides the default cluster behavior, which is to
synchronize radio channels of all WAP devices that are members of the cluster.
When channel management is enabled, the radio channel is not synchronized
across the cluster to other devices.
When automatic channel assignment is enabled, the channel manager periodically
maps radio channels used by WAP devices in a Single Point Setup cluster and, if
necessary, reassigns channels to reduce interference with cluster members or
with devices outside the cluster. The channel policy for the radio is automatically
set to static mode, and the
Auto option is not available for the Channel field on the
Wireless > Radio page.
See Viewing Channel Assignments and Setting Locks for information on the
current and proposed channel assignments.
STEP 3
To stop automatic channel assignment, click Stop .
No channel usage maps or channel reassignments are made. Only manual updates
affect the channel assignment.
Viewing Channel Assignments and Setting Locks
When channel management is enabled, the page shows the Current Channel
Assignations table and the Proposed Channel Assignments table.
Current Channel Assignments Table
The Current Channel Assignments table shows a list of all WAP devices in the
Single Point Setup cluster by IP address.
The table provides the following details on the current channel assignments.
• Location —The physical location of the device.
• IP Address —The IP address for the access point.
• Wireless Radio —The MAC address of the radio.
• Band —The band on which the access point is broadcasting.
• Channel —The radio channel on which this access point is currently
broadcasting.
• Locked —Forces the access point to remain on the current channel.
