Basic and Advanced WiFi and QoS Configuration Concepts
It is important to know how to configure your network and decide which configuration model
better fits your needs, basic or advanced. Once you follow one, it is easy to use the same
configuration model for the WiFi and Quality of Service (QoS) settings. Before you configure
the WiFi settings, read Basic and Advanced Setting Concepts on page 33.
• Basic WiFi settings. If you use the basic configuration model, the following WiFi and
QoS settings apply to all profiles in the basic profile group:
- Basic radio on/off schedule
- Basic WiFi settings for each radio in the basic profile
- Basic RF management
- Basic rate limiting for each radio in the basic profile
- Basic preferred band settings for the WNDAP620 access points

created:
