Chapter 6
Configure and Monitor Omada Managed Devices
Radios
In Radios, you can control how and what type of radio signals the EAP emits. Select the frequency
band
and configure the following parameters.
Status
If you disable the frequency band, the radio on it will turn off.
Channel Width
Specify the channel width of the band. Two bands have different available options: 20 MHz,
40 MHz and 20/40 MHz for 2.4 GHz, and 20 MHz, 40 MHz, 80 MHz and 20/40/80 MHz for
5 GHz.
Note that the option 20/40 MHz and 20/40/80 MHz channels enable higher data rates but
leave fewer available channels for other 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz devices.
Channel
Specify the operation channel of the EAP to improve wireless performance. If you select
Auto
for the channel setting, the EAP scans available channels and selects the channel
where the least amount of traffic is detected.
Tx Power
Specify the Tx Power (Transmit Power) in the 4 options: Low, Medium, High and Custom.
The actual power of Low, Medium and High are based on the minimum transmit power
(Min. Txpower) and maximum transmit power (Max. TxPower), which may vary in different
countries and regions.
Low
: Min. TxPower + (Max. TxPower-Min. TxPower) * 20% (round off the value)
Medium
: Min. TxPower + (Max. TxPower-Min. TxPower) * 60% (round off the value)
High
: Max. TxPower
Custom
: Specify the value manually.
WLANs
In WLANs, you can apply the WLAN group to the EAP and specify a different SSID name and
password to override the SSID in the WLAN group. After that, clients can only see the new SSID and
