Table 2 Dell PowerConnect W AP Groups Details, Settings and Default Values (Continued) Field Default Description WLANs None selected Displays the WLANs currently present in Dell PowerConnect W Configuration. You may select as few or as many WLANS as desired for which this AP Group is active. To configure additional WLANs that appear in this section, click Add a new WLAN or navigate to the WLANs section of the Dell PowerConnect W Configuration tool. Referenced Profiles 802.11a Radio Profile 5_am 802.11g Radio Profile 2.4_am RF Optimization Profile default Event Thresholds Profile default Wired AP Profile default Ethernet Interface 0 default Link Profile Defines AP radio settings for the 5 GHz frequency band, including the Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) profile and the high-throughput (802.11n) radio profile. Select the pencil icon next to this field to edit or create additional profile settings in the RF > 802.11a/g Radio page. Select Save to return to the Add AP Group page. Defines AP radio settings for the 2.4 GHz frequency band, including the Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) profile and the high-throughput (802.11n) radio profile. Each 802.11a and 802.11b radio profile includes a reference to an Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) profile. If you would like the ARM feature to select dynamically the best channel and transmission power for the radio, verify that the 802.11a/802.11g radio profile references an active and enabled ARM profile. If you want to manually select a channel for each AP group, create separate 802.11a and 802.11g profiles for each AP group and assign a different transmission channel for each profile. The drop-down menu displays these options:  default  nchannel too high  nchannel too low Select the pencil icon next to this field to edit profile settings in the RF > 802.11a/g Radio page. Select Save to return to the Add AP Group page. Enables or disables load balancing based on a user-defined number of clients or degree of AP utilization on an AP. Use this profile to detect coverage holes, radio interference and STA association failures and configure Received signal strength indication (RSSI) metrics. Select the pencil icon next to this field to display the Profiles > RF section and edit these settings as desired. Select Save to return to the Add AP Group page. Defines error event conditions, based on a customizable percentage of low-speed frames, non-unicast frames, or fragmented, retry or error frames. The drop-down menu displays these options:  default  all additional RF profiles currently configured in Dell PowerConnect W Configuration Select the pencil icon next to this field to display the Profiles > RF > Events Threshold section and edit these settings as desired. Select Save to return to the Add AP Group page. Controls whether 802.11 frames are tunneled to the controller using Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunnels, bridged into the local Ethernet LAN (for remote APs), or a configured for combination of the two (split-mode). This profile also configures the switching mode characteristics for the port, and sets the port as either trusted or untrusted. Select the pencil icon next to this field to display the Profiles > AP > Wired page and adjust these settings as desired. Select Save to return to the Add AP Group page. Sets the duplex mode and speed of AP's Ethernet link for ethernet interface 0. The configurable speed is dependent on the port type, and you can define a separate Ethernet Interface profile for each Ethernet link. Select the pencil icon next to this field to display the Profiles > AP > Ethernet Link details page and adjust these settings as desired. Select Save to return to the Add AP Group page.
