This forces clients to associate with an AP that has a better signal strength (also
called assisted roaming). Suggested value is -70 to -80 depending on access
point density and coverage.
BSS coloring — In 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) mode, BSS coloring allows nearby APs
operating at the same frequency to identify traffic belonging to their own Basic
Service Set (BSS). The BSS coloring enables Wi-Fi 6 networks to operate more
efficiently in high-density environments
where neighboring AP and client
transm
issions overlap. Assign a color value (a number from 1 to 63) to identify
the radio BSS, or enter value 64 to allow the AP to randomly select a color
value. (Range: 1-63, 64 random; Default: 64)
Interference Detection — When the utilization in current channel reaches the
configured threshold (as a percentage), the AP switches to a different channel.
(Range: 0 - 100%; Default: 0, disabled)
OFDMA — The 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) mode supports Orthogonal Frequency
Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) and this cannot be disabled.
Target Wake Time — In 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) mode, the AP can allow clients to
request a specific Target-Wakeup Time (TWT) to transmit or receive frames,
rather than rely on periodic beacons. This feature enables client devices to
have much longer sleep states and results in significant power savings. In
addition, the AP can control and schedule client TWTs to both manage
contention in the network and accommodate d
elay-sensitive traffic. (Default:
D
isabled)
Broadcast Rate — Allows a limit to be placed on the wireless bandwidth
consumed by broadcast packets.
Radio 2.4 Ghz — Options: 5.5M, 6M, 9M, 11M, 12M, 18M, 24M, 36M,
48M, 54M; Default: 5.5M
Radio 5 Ghz — Options: 6M, 9M, 12M, 18M, 24M, 36M, 48M, 54M;
Default: 6M
Radio 6 Ghz — Options: 6M, 9M, 12M, 18M, 24M, 36M, 48M, 54M;
Default: 6M
RF Isolation — When enabled, clients are isolated between different radio
cards.
SSID Isolation — When enabled, clients are isolated between different SSIDs
on the same radio cards.
