ProSAFE Wireless Controller 7. Configure the settings in the table at the bottom of the page as described in the following table. Setting Description AP Name The name of the access point. Access Point Channel Override these settings only if a specific need exists. From the menu, select a channel and frequency for the access point to operate in. Note: Changing a channel might temporarily affect the traffic on the access point. Note: By default, the access point's channel and frequency are set to the ones that are enabled for the radio and profile group. If the channel and frequency are not available on the access point, the channel and frequency are set to the ones providing the highest performance. For more information, see Configure Channels on page 191. Tx Power From the menu, select the transmission power of the access point. Note: By default, the access point's transmission power is set to the configuration that is selected on the basic RF Management page. For more information, see Configure Radio Frequency Management for an Advanced Profile Group on page 197. 8. Click the Apply button. The changes are saved. Configure Channels CAUTION: Do not disable channel allocation unless you are debugging or an extreme situation occurred that affects the channels. Automatic channel allocation distributes channels across the managed access points to reduce interference. Each wireless controller allocates channels for its managed access points, regardless of their configured security profiles. The wireless controller detects interference, traffic load on the access point, and neighborhood maps to determine the best channel for an access point. The wireless controller collects this information over the previous 24 hours and uses this information to determine the best possible channel for the access point. Note: The wireless controller determines available channels based on the country or region that you specified on the General Settings page (see Configure the General Settings on page 99).
