Note: When APs are added to the controller for the first time, the default 2.4G
channel is set to 1 and default 5G channel is set 161 (North America) & 48
(Europe). It is recommended for APs in the same wireless group to use the same
channel for seamless roaming.
Tx Power – Displays the 2.4G and 5G transmit power setting.
Example: auto / auto means 2.4G transmit power is set to auto and 5G transmit
power is set to auto. (First: 2.4G setting / Second: 5G setting)
Action – Click to modify the AP individual settings.
Under , you can modify the AP individual settings. Click OK to save the
changes.
AP Model – Displays the AP model. Note: This setting cannot be modified.
MAC Address – Displays the AP MAC address. Note: This setting cannot be
modified.
Device Name - Sets the AP device name.
Description – Sets the AP description.
Radio B/G/N (2.4GHz) (Settings for the 2.4G radio)
Note: It is recommended that APs that are in the same wireless group are
always configured with the same individual settings to produce optimum
wireless connectivity and performance. By default, when APs are first added to
the wireless controller, all APs are set to use the same default settings including
specific 2.4G channel 1.
o Channel Bandwidth – Set the 2.4G channel bandwidth setting for the
AP.
20 MHz – This mode operates using a single 20MHz channel
for wireless devices connecting at 2.4G 802.11b/g/n. This
setting may provide more stability than Auto 20/40 MHz for
connectivity in busy wireless environments where there are
several neighboring wireless networks in the area.
Auto 20/40 MHz (Recommended Default) –When this setting
is active, this mode is capable of providing higher
performance only if the wireless devices support the higher
40MHz channel width settings. Enabling this setting typically
results in substantial performance increases when connecting
802.11n wireless clients and the AP can dynamically choose
whether to operate in 20MHz or 40MHz depending on the
wireless environment conditions.
40 MHz – This mode will statically set the AP to operate in the
higher channel width setting (channel bonding) and may yield
the highest performance but least stability if wireless
conditions are not ideal.
o Channel – Set the 2.4G desired operating channel. For use with the
controller, it is recommended to statically assign a specific channel
and set all of the APs that belong in the same wireless group to use
the same channel. Ideally, it is recommended to select a channel that
is least used by neighboring wireless networks. When creating
different wireless groups, it is recommended to assign a different
channel for different wireless groups to avoid any interference
between other wireless groups.
o Wireless Group – Sets the 2.4G wireless group assignment. By
default, all APs are assigned to the wireless Default Group (1).
