Chapter 9 Wireless LAN Profiles
ZyWALL Series CLI Reference Guide
83
[no] ctsrts <0..2347>
Sets or removes the RTS/CTS value for this profile.
Use RTS/CTS to reduce data collisions on the wireless network
if you have wireless clients that are associated with the same
AP but out of range of one another. When enabled, a
wireless client sends an RTS (Request To Send) and then waits
for a CTS (Clear To Send) before it transmits. This stops wireless
clients from transmitting packets at the same time (and
causing data collisions).
A wireless client sends an RTS for all packets larger than the
number (of bytes) that you enter here. Set the RTS/CTS equal
to or higher than the fragmentation threshold to turn RTS/CTS
off.
The default is 2347.
[no] dcs activate
Starts dynamic channel selection to automatically find a less-
used channel in an environment where there are many APs
and there may be interference. Use the no parameter to turn
it off.
dcs 2g-selected-channel
2.4g_channels
Specifies the channels that are available in the 2.4 GHz band
when you manually configure the channels an AP can use.
dcs 5g-selected-channel
5g_channels
Specifies the channels that are available in the 5 GHz band
when you manually configure the channels an AP can use.
dcs dcs-2g-method {auto|manual}
Sets the AP to automatically search for available channels or
manually configure the channels the AP uses in the 2.4 GHz
band.
dcs dcs-5g-method {auto|manual}
Sets the AP to automatically search for available channels or
manually configure the channels the AP uses in the 5 GHz
band.
dcs client-aware
{enable|disable}
When enabled, this ensures that an AP will not change
channels as long as a client is connected to it. If disabled, the
AP may change channels regardless of whether it has clients
connected to it or not.
dcs channel-deployment {3-
channel|4-channel}
Sets either a 3-channel deployment or a 4-channel
deployment.
In a 3-channel deployment, the AP running the scan
alternates between the following channels: 1, 6, and 11.
In a 4-channel deployment, the AP running the scan
alternates between the following channels: 1, 4, 7, and 11
(FCC) or 1, 5, 9, and 13 (ETSI).
Sets the option that is applicable to your region. (Channel
deployment may be regulated differently between countries
and locales.)
dcs dfs-aware {enable|disable}
Enable this to allow an AP to avoid phase DFS channels
below the 5 GHz spectrum.
Note: This feature is automatically disabled when Zero-
Wait DFS is enabled.
dcs mode {interval|schedule}
Sets the AP to use DCS at the end of the specified time
interval or at a specifc time on selected days of the week.
dcs schedule <hh:mm>
{mon|tue|wed|thu|fri|sat|sun}
Sets what time of day (in 24-hour format) the AP starts to use
DCS on the specified day(s) of the week.
