If bgscan_short_interval and bgscan_long_interval are set to the same value,
bgscan_strength is ignored. For example, the default configuration hasboth
bgscan_short_interval and bgscan_long_interval set to 1 second, which means
that the device will scan for access points once per second regardlessof the value
of bgscan_strength.
c. Set the number of secondsto wait between scansfor accesspoints, when the signal
strength from the accesspoint to which the client is currently connected is below the
value of bgscan_strength:
(config network wifi client new_client)> bgscan_short_interval value
(config network wifi client new_client)>
where value is any integer greater than 0. The default is 1.
d. Set the number of secondsto wait between scansfor accesspoints, when the signal
strength from the accesspoint to which the client is currently connected is greater than
the value of bgscan_strength:
(config network wifi client new_client)> bgscan_long_interval value
(config network wifi client new_client)>
where value is any integer greater than 0. The default is 1.
e. Configure the frequenciesthat will be scanned for available access points.
The IX20Wdevice hasthree preconfigured frequencies:
n
2412 MHz
n
2437 MHz
n
2462 MHz
You can delete the preconfigured frequencies and add additional frequencies. At least one
frequenciesis required.
f. To delete a preconfigured frequencies:
i. Use the show command to determine the index number of the channel to be deleted:
(config network wifi client new_client)> show background_scanning
scan_freq
0 2412
1 2437
2 2462
(config network wifi client new_client)>
ii. Use the appropriate index number to delete the channel. For example, to delete the
2412 frequency:
(config network wifi client new_client)> del 0
(config network wifi client new_client)>
g. To add a frequency:
i. Use the ?with an existing index number to determine the allowed values for
frequencies:
