thattriggerschannelre‐assignment,changethescheduleforautomaticupdates,
andre‐configurethechannel

Stopping /StartingAutomaticChannelAssignment
Bydefault,automaticchannelassignmentisdisabled(off).
•ClickStarttoresumeautomaticchannelassignment.
Whenautomaticchannelassignmentisenabled,theChannelManagerperiodicallymapsradiochannels
usedbyclusteredaccesspointsand,ifnecessary,re‐assignschannelsonclusteredAPstoreduce
interference(withclustermembersorotherAPsoutside
thecluster).
•ClickStoptostopautomaticchannelassignment.(Nochannelusagemapsorchannelre‐assignmentswill
bemade.Onlymanualupdateswillaffectthechannelassignment.)
Note:ChannelManagementoverridesthedefaultcluster behavior,whichistosynchronizeradio
channelsofallAPsacrossacluster.WhenChannelManagementisenabled,theradioChannelis
notsyncedacrosstheclustertootherAPs.
