RF Auto-Tuning
The RF AutoTuning feature dynamically assigns channel and power settings to AP radios,
and adjusts those settings when needed. RF AutoTuning can perform the following tasks:
• Assign initial channel and power settings when a DWL-8220AP radio is started.
• Periodically assess the RF environment and change the channel or power setting if
needed.
• Change the transmit data rate or power to maintain at least the minimum data rate
with all associated clients.
By default, RF AutoTuning is enabled for channel configuration but disabled for power
configuration.
Default Radio Profile
MSS contains one default radio profile, named default. To apply common parameters to
radios, you can modify the default profile or create a new one. When you create a new profile,
the radio parameters in the profile are set to their factory default values.
Radio-Specific Parameters
The channel number, transmit power, and external antenna parameters are unique to each
radio and are not controlled by radio profiles. The table below lists the defaults for these
parameters.
