Description
This field is only available in Infrastructure Mode and is used to specify the
NPort’s roaming behavior. Roaming is the ability to connect to different APs so
wireless communication is not confined to one area or one particular AP. The
NPort will only roam between APs within the three profiles, as specified by the
SSID.
Signal strength of AP: If more than one AP is detected, the NPort will connect
to the AP that has the highest signal strength, regardless of priority as set in the
Priority field. The NPort will remain connected to this AP until the signal
strength falls below the threshold set by Low Signal Strength Reconnect. At that
point, the NPort will disconnect from that AP and connect to the AP that
currently has the highest signal strength.
Priority sequential: The NPort will always try to connect to APs in order of
priority as set in the Priority field, regardless of signal strength. If the signal
strength falls below the threshold set by Low Signal Strength Reconnect, the
NPort will attempt to connect to the next priority AP. To adjust the priority of
the APs, see the Priority field.
Fixed on 1st priority: The NPort is only allowed to connect to the first priority
AP as set in the Priority field. This setting is used to prevent roaming between
APs. To adjust the priority of the APs, see the Priority field.
Low Signal Strength Reconnect
Default
None
Options
None, <20%, <40%, <80%
Description
This field is only available in Infrastructure Mode and is used to specify the
NPort’s signal strength threshold. If the AP’s signal strength falls below the
specified threshold, the NPort will disconnect from the current AP and
reconnect to the WLAN according to the Connect Rule setting.
