Setting Description Defaults
Client Match The client match feature helps optimize network
resources by balancing clients across channels,
regardless of whether the AP or the switch is
responding to the wireless clients' probe requests.
If enabled, the switch compares whether 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 Alcatel-
Lucent AP on another channel does not have any
clients, load balancing will be enabled on that AP.
This feature is enabled by default. For details, see
Client Match on page 452.
Enabled
Scanning The Scanning checkbox enables or disables AP
scanning across multiple channels. This checkbox is
selected by default. Do not disable scanning unless
you want to disable ARM and manually configure AP
channel and transmission power. Disabling this
option also disables the following scanning features:
n Multi Band Scan
n Rogue AP Aware
n Voip Aware Scan
n Power Save Scan
Enabled
Multi Band Scan If enabled, single radio channel APs scans for rogue
APs across multiple channels. This option requires
that Scanning is also enabled.
(The Multi Band Scan option does not apply to APs
that have two radios, as these devices already scan
across multiple channels. If one of these dual-radio
devices are assigned an ARM profile with Multi Band
enabled, that device will ignore this setting.)
Enabled
VoIP Aware Scan Alcatel-Lucent’s VoIP Call Admission Control (CAC)
prevents any single AP from becoming congested
with voice calls. When you enable CAC, you should
also enable VoIP Aware Scan in the ARM profile, so
the AP will not attempt to scan a different channel if
one of its clients has an active VoIP call. This option
requires that Scanning is also enabled.
Enabled
Power Save Aware
Scan
If enabled, the AP will not scan a different channel if
it has one or more clients that is in power save
mode.
Disabled
Video Aware Scan As long as there is at least one video frame every
100mSec the AP will reject an ARM scanning
request. Note that for each radio interface, video
frames must be defined in one of two ways:
n Classify the frame as video traffic via a session
ACL.
n Enable WMM on the WLAN’s SSID profile and
define a specific DSCP value as a video stream.
Next, create a session ACL to tag the video traffic
with the that DSCP value.
