Wireless Controller
User Manual

power level in the AP profile is the default level for the AP, and the power will
not be adjusted below the value in the AP profile. The settings in the local
database and RADIUS server always override power set in the profile setting. If
you manually set the power, the level is fixed and the AP will not use the
automatic power adjustment algorithm. You can configure the power as a
percentage of maximum power, where the maximum power is the minimum of
power level allowed for the channel by the regulatory domain or the hardware
capability.
Manual
: In this mode, you run the proposed power adjustments manually from
the Manual Power Adjustments page.
Interval
: In this mode, the controller periodically calculates the power
adjustments and applies the power for all APs. The interval period begins when
you click Submit.
Power Adjustment Interval:
This field determines how often the controller
runs the power adjustment algorithm. The algorithm runs automatically only if
you set the power adjustment mode to Interval.
This setting gets applied to both radios of the AP.
The following actions are supported from this page:
Submit
: Updates the controller with the values you enter.
5.2.2 Channel Plan History
Setup > AP Management > RF Management > Channel Plan History
The wireless controller stores channel assignment information for the APs it
manages. The Cluster Controller that controls the cluster maintains the channel
history information for all controllers in the cluster. On the Cluster Controller, the
page shows information about the radios on all APs managed by controllers in the
cluster that are eligible for channel assignment and were successfully assigned a
new channel.
Channel Plan:
The 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz radios use different channel plans, so
the controller tracks the channel history separately for each radio. The channel
information that displays on the page is only for the radio you select.
