CLI Command Reference
antenna
Use this command to configure antenna diversity on the AP. If the AP has two antenna
connectors, antenna diversity may be used. This can improve performance of the AP because
the best antenna is selected for receive and transmit. However, if there is only one antenna,
then disabling antenna diversity is recommended. Antenna diversity is disabled by default and
antenna 1 (primary antenna) is selected for transmit/receive. This switch CLI command allows
disabling or enabling the antenna diversity in a configuration profile for a radio of the
managed AP.
You can select one of the following antenna modes:
•
auto—Set Antenna Diversity mode to auto.
•
primary—Select primary antenna for transmit/receive.
•
secondary—Select primary antenna for transmit/receive.
