By default, the channel and power for a W-IAP are optimized dynamically using ARM. You can override ARM on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands and set the channel and power manually if desired. The following table describes various configuration modes for a W-IAP: Table 20: W-IAP Radio Modes Mode Description Access In Access mode, the W-IAP serves clients, while also monitoring for rogue W-IAPs in the background. If the Access mode is selected, perform the following actions: 1. Select Administrator assigned in 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band sections. 2. Select appropriate channel number from the Channel drop-down list for both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band sections. 3. Enter appropriate transmit power value in the Transmit power text box in 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band sections. Monitor In Monitor mode, the W-IAP acts as a dedicated monitor, scanning all channels for rogue W-IAPs and clients. You can set one radio on the Monitor mode and the other radio on the access mode, so that the clients can use one radio when the other one is in the Air Monitor mode. Spectrum Monitor In Spectrum Monitor mode, the W-IAP functions as a dedicated full-spectrum RF monitor, scanning all channels to detect interference, whether from the neighboring W-IAPs or from non-WiFi devices such as microwaves and cordless phones. In the Spectrum Monitor mode, the W-IAPs do not provide access services to clients. 4. Click OK.
