Measurement Mode for
Beacon Reports
beacon-table Select the Measurement Mode for Beacon Reports drop-down menu and
specify one of the following measurement modes:
 active—Enables active beacon measurement mode. In this mode, the
client sends a probe request to the broadcast destination address on all
supported channels, sets a measurement duration timer, and, at the end
of the measurement duration, compiles all received beacons or probe
response with the requested SSID and BSSID into a measurement report.
 beacon-table—Enables beacon-table beacon measurement mode.In this
mode, the client measures beacons and returns a report with stored
beacon information for any supported channel with the requested SSID
and BSSID. The client does not perform any additional measurements.
 passive—Enables passive beacon measurement mode. In this mode, the
client sets a measurement duration timer, and, at the end of the
measurement duration, compiles all received beacons or probe response
with the requested SSID and BSSID into a measurement report.
NOTE: If a station does not support the selected measurement mode, it
returns a Beacon Measurement Report with the Incapable bit set in the
Measurement Report Mode field.
Advertise 802.11K Capability No Select this option to allow Virtual APs using this profile to advertise 802.11K
capability. This feature is disabled by default.
Forcefully Disassociate On-
hook Voice Clients
No Select this option to allow the AP to forcefully disassociate on-hook voice
clients (clients that are not on a call) after period of inactivity. Without the
forced disassociation feature, if an AP has reached its call admission control
limits and an on-hook voice client wants to start a new call, that client may be
denied. If forced disassociation is enabled, those clients can associate to a
neighboring AP that can fulfil their QoS requirements. This feature is disabled
by default.
