Table 51: Access Point Control - Configuration Parameters Parameter Description Customize Valid Channels Select this checkbox to customize valid channels for 2,4 GHz and 5 GHz. By default, the AP uses valid channels as defined by the Country Code (regulatory domain). On selecting the Customize Valid Channels checkbox, a list of valid channels for both 2.4.GHz and 5 GHz are displayed. The valid channel customization feature is disabled by default.. Minimum Transmit Power Specify the minimum transmission power. The value specified for Minimum Transmit Power indicates the minimum Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) from 3 to 33 dBm in 3 dBm increments. If the minimum transmission EIRP setting configured on an AP is not supported by the AP model, this value is reduced to the highest supported power setting. The default value is for minimum transmit power is 18 dBm. Maximum Transmit Power Specify the maximum transmission power. The value specified for Maximum Transmit Power indicates the maximum Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) from 3 to 33 dBm in 3 dBm increments. If the maximum transmission EIRP configured on an AP is not supported by the AP model, the value is reduced to the highest supported power setting. The default value for maximum transmit power is 127 dBm. Client aware When Enabled, ARM does not change channels for the APs with active clients, except for high priority events such as radar or excessive noise. This feature must be enabled in most deployments for a stable WLAN. If the Client Aware mode is Disabled, the W-IAP may change to a more optimal channel, which change may disrupt current client traffic for a while. The Client aware option is Enabled by default. NOTE: When Client aware is disabled, channels can be changed even when the clients are active on a BSSID. Scanning Select Enabled so that the W-IAP dynamically scans all 802.11 channels within its 802.11 regulatory domain at regular intervals and reports to the W-IAP. This scanning report includes WLAN coverage, interference, and intrusion detection data. NOTE: For client match configuration, ensure that scanning is enabled. Wide Channel Bands Select a band to allow the APs to be placed in 40Mhz (wide band) channels. The Wide channel band allows administrators to configure 40 MHz channels in the 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz bands. 40 MHz channels are two 20 MHz adjacent channels that are bonded together. 40 MHz channel effectively doubles the frequency bandwidth available for data transmission. 80 MHz Support Enables or disables the use of 80 MHz channels on APs. This feature allows ARM to assign 80 MHz channels on APs with 5GHz radios, which support a very high throughput. This setting is enabled by default. NOTE: Only the APs that support 802.11ac can be configured with 80 MHz channels. 2. Reboot the W-IAP. 255 | Adaptive Radio Management Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.4.3.1-4.2.0.0 | User Guide
