CLI Reference Guide

Parameter Description Range Default
maximum-distance
Maximum distance between a client and an AP or
between a mesh point and a mesh portal, in
meters. This value is used to derive ACK and CTS
timeout times. A value of 0 specifies default
settings for this parameter, where timeouts are
only modified for outdoor mesh radios which use a
distance of 16km.
The upper limit for this parameter varies,
depending on the 20/40 MHz mode for a 2.4GHz
frequency band radio:
l 20MHz mode: 54km
l 40MHz mode: 24km
Note that if you configure a value above the
supported maximum, the maximum supported
value will be used instead. Values below 600m
will use default settings.

mgmt-frame-throttle-
interval
Averaging interval for rate limiting management
frames in seconds. Zero disables rate limiting.
Note: This parameter only applies to AUTH and
ASSOC/RE-ASSOC management frames.
0-60 1 second
interval
mgmt-frame-throttle-limit
Maximum number of management frames allowed
in each throttle interval.
NOTE: This parameter only applies to AUTH and
ASSOC/RE-ASSOC management frames.

interval
mode
One of the operating modes for the AP. ap-mode
ap-mode
Device provides transparent, secure, high-speed
data communications between wireless network
devices and the wired LAN.
am-mode
Device behaves as an air monitor to collect
statistics, monitor traffic, detect intrusions, enforce
security policies, balance traffic load, self-heal
coverage gaps, etc.
spectrum-mode
Device operates as an spectrum monitor, and can
send spectrum analysis data to a desktop or laptop
client.
no
Negates any configured parameter. — —
radio-enable
Enables or disables radio configuration. — enabled
slb-mode channel|radio
SLB Mode allows control over how to balance
clients. Select one of the following options:
l channel: Channel-based load-balancing
balances clients across channels. This is the
default load-balancing mode
l radio: Radio-based load-balancing balances
clients across APs
channel
slb-threshold
If the spectrum load balancing feature is enabled,
this parameter controls the percentage difference
between number of clients on a channel channel
