Setting Description Defaults
Mode Aware ARM If enabled, ARM will turn APs into Air Monitors (AMs)
if it detects higher coverage levels than necessary.
This helps avoid higher levels of interference on the
WLAN. Although this setting is disabled by default,
you may want to enable this feature if your APs are
deployed in close proximity (less than 60 feet apart).
Mode aware ARM turns Air Monitors back into APs
when they detect gaps in coverage. Note that an Air
Monitor will not turn back into an AP if it detects
client traffic (or client traffic increases), but will
change to an AP only if it detects coverage holes.
Disabled
Scan Mode By default, 802.11n-capable APs scan channels
within all regulatory domains. To limit the AP scans
to just the regulatory domain for that AP, click the
Scan Mode drop-down list and select reg-domain.
NOTE: This setting does not apply to APs that do not
support 802.11n; these APs will scan their regulatory
domain only.
al-reg-domain
Video Aware Scan As long as there is at least one video frame every
100mSec 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.

Table 107: ARM Profile Configuration Parameters
In the CLI
You must be in config mode to create, modify or delete an ARM profile using the CLI. Specify an existing ARM
profile with the <profile-name> parameter to modify an existing ARM profile, or enter a new name to create an
entirely new profile.
To create a new ARM profile or modify an existing profile via the command-line interface, access the CLI in
config mode and issue the following command:
(host)(config) #rf arm-profile <profile>
The name must be 1–63 characters, and can be composed of alphanumeric characters, special characters and
spaces. If your profile name includes a space, it must be enclosed within quotation marks.
Configuration details and any default values for each of these parameters are described in Table 107. If you do
not specify a parameter for a new profile, that profile uses the default value for that parameter. Put the no
option before any parameter to remove the current value for that parameter and return it to its default
setting.
The ARMprofile includes advanced client match settings that can be configured through the command-line interface
only. The default values for these settings are recommended for most users, and caution should be used when
changing them to a non-default value. For complete details on all client match configuration settings, refer to the
AOS-W CLIReference Guide.
