Parameter Description Range Default
spectrum-load-balancing
The Spectrum Load Balancing
feature helps optimize network
resources by balancing clients
across channels, regardless of
whether the AP or the
controller is responding to the
wireless clients' probe
requests.
If enabled, the controller
compares whether or not an
AP has more clients than its
neighboring APs on other
channels. If an AP’s client load
is at or over a predetermined
threshold as compared to its
immediate neighbors, or if a
neighboring Dell AP on another
channel does not have any
clients, load balancing will be
enabled on that AP. This
feature is disabled by default.

spectrum-monitoring
Issue this command to turn APs
in ap-mode into a hybrid AP. An
AP in hybrid AP mode will
continue to serve clients as an
access point while it scans and
analyzes spectrum analysis
data for a single radio channel.
For further details on using
hybrid APs and spectrum
monitors to examine the radio
frequency (RF) environment in
which the Wi-Fi network is
operating, refer to the
Spectrum Analysis chapter of
the Dell Networking W-Series
ArubaOS User Guide.
For a list of APs that can be
converted into a spectrum
monitor or hybrid AP, refer to
the Spectrum Analysis chapter
of the Dell Networking W-Dell
Networking W-Series ArubaOS
6.5.x User Guide.

spectrum-profile <profile>
Specify the rf spectrum profile
used by hybrid APs and
spectrum monitors. This profile
sets the spectrum band and
device ageout times used by a
spectrum monitor or hybrid AP
radio. For details, see rf
spectrum-profile on page 766.
