Parameter Description Range Default
csa
Channel Switch Announcement (CSA), as
defined by IEEE 802.11h, allows an AP to
announce that it is switching to a new
channel before it begins transmitting on
that channel.
Clients must support CSA in order to track
the channel change without experiencing
disruption.
disabled
csa-count
Number of CSA announcements that are
sent before the AP begins transmitting on
the new channel.
1-16 4
disable-arm-
wids-function
Disables Adaptive Radio Management
(ARM) and Wireless IDS functions. These
can be disabled if a small increase in
packet processing performance is desired.
If a radio is configured to operate in Air
Monitor mode, then these functions are
always enabled irrespective of this option.
CAUTION: Use this parameter with
caution. Enabling this parameter
effectively disables ARM and WIDS.
OFF
dot11h
Enable advertisement of 802.11d (Country
Information) and 802.11h (TPC or
Transmit Power Control) capabilities This
parameter is disabled by default.
disabled
high-throughput-enable
Enables high-throughput (802.11n)
features on a radio using the 5 GHz
frequency band.
enabled
ht-radio-profile
Name of high-throughput radio profile to
use for configuring high-throughput
support on the 5 GHz frequency band. See
rf ht-radio-profile on page 761.
“default-a
interference-immunity
Set a value for 802.11 Interference
Immunity. The default setting for this
parameter is level 2. When performance
drops due to interference from non-
802.11 interferers (such as DECT or
Bluetooth devices), the level can be
increased up to level 5 for improved
performance. However, increasing the
level makes the AP slightly “deaf” to its
surroundings, causing the AP to lose a
small amount of range.
The levels for this parameter are:
l Level-0: no ANI adaptation.
l Level-1: noise immunity only.
Level-0 -
Level-15
Level-2
