Chapter 22 Dynamic Channel Selection Table 82 DCS FIELD DCS Sensitivity Level DESCRIPTION Select the NWA's sensitivity level toward other channels. Options are High, Medium, and Low. Generally, as long as the area in which your NWA is located has minimal interference from other devices you can set the DCS Sensitivity Level to Low. This means that the NWA has a very broad tolerance. If you are not sure about the number and location of any other devices in the region, set the level to Medium just to be safe. The NWA's tolerance for interference is relatively narrow. On the other hand, if you know there are numerous other devices in the region, you should set the level to High to keep the cross-interference to a minimum. In this case, the NWA's tolerance for interference is quite draconian. DCS Client Aware Note: The higher the sensitivity level, the more frequently the NWA switches channels. As a consequence, anyone connected to the NWA will experience more frequent disconnects and reconnects. Select Enable to have the NWA wait until all connected clients have disconnected before switching channels. DCS Allow Channel List (2.4G only) DCS DFS Channel Aware (5G only) Apply Reset If you select Disable then the NWA switches channels immediately regardless of any client connections. In this instance, clients that are connected to the AP when it switches channels are dropped. Select the range of non-overlapping channel numbers for which you want the NWA to scan and subsequently use if available. Select Enable to allow the NWA to broadcast on unused radar channels. If you select Disable to turn the feature off. See Section 8.3.2 on page 145 for more information on dynamic frequency. Click this to save your changes to the NWA.
