Allocating Channels
Because the Xirrus Array is a multi-channel device, allocating the best channels to
radios is important if peak performance is to be maintained.
Automatic Channel Selection
We recommend that you allow the Array to make intelligent channel allocation
decisions automatically. In the automatic mode, channels are allocated
dynamically, driven by changes in the environment.
Manual Channel Selection
You can manually assign channels on a per radio basis, though manual selection
is not recommended (and not necessary).

To avoid co-channel interference, do not select adjacent channels for radios that
are physically next to each other.
