from the upper, left-hand side, of the access point user interface.

14. Select

remains selected so the screen’s parameters can

be updated. Additionally, the Smart RF configuration cannot be applied to the access point profile unless this setting
remains selected.

2.4 GHz Minimum Power

Use the spinner control to select a 1 - 20 dBm minimum power level Smart RF can assign
a radio in the 2.4 GHz band. The default setting is 4 dBm.

2.4 GHz Maximum Power

Use the spinner control to select a 1 - 20 dBm maximum power level Smart RF can assign
a radio in the 2.4 GHz band. The default setting is 17 dBm.

5 GHz Channels

Use the

Select

drop-down menu to select the 5.0 GHz channels used in Smart RF scans.

5 Channel Width

20 MHz and 40 MHz channel widths are supported by the 802.11a radio. 20/40 MHz
operation (the default setting for the 5 GHz radio) allows the access point to receive
packets from clients using 20 MHz of bandwidth while transmitting a packet using 40 MHz
bandwidth. This mode is supported for 11n users on both 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz radios. If
an 11n user selects two channels (a Primary and Secondary channel), the system is
configured for dynamic 20/40 operation. When 20/40 is selected, clients can take
advantage of “wider channels.” 802.11n clients experience improved throughput using
40 MHz while legacy clients (either 802.11a or 802.11b/g depending on the radio selected)
can still be serviced without interruption using 20 MHz. Select Automatic to enable the
automatic assignment of channels to working radios to avoid channel overlap and avoid
interference from external RF sources. The default setting is 40 MHz.

2.4 GHz Channels

Use the

Select

drop-down menu to select the 2.4 GHz channels used in Smart RF scans.

2.4 GHz Channel Width

20 and 40 MHz channel widths are supported by the 802.11a radio. 20 MHz is the default
setting for 2.4 GHz radios. 20/40 MHz operation (the default setting for the 5 GHz radio)
allows the access point to receive packets from clients using 20 MHz of bandwidth while
transmitting a packet using 40 MHz bandwidth. This mode is supported for 11n users on
both 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz radios. If an 11n user selects two channels (a Primary and
Secondary channel), the system is configured for dynamic 20/40 operation. When 20/40
is selected, clients can take advantage of “wider channels.” 802.11n clients experience
improved throughput using 40 MHz while legacy clients (either 802.11a or 802.11b/g
depending on the radio selected) can still be serviced without interruption using 20 MHz.
Select Automatic to enable automatic assignment of channels to working radios to avoid
channel overlap and avoid interference from external RF sources. 20 MHz is the default
setting.
