Release Notes

Parameter Description
Error Rate Wait Time Time, in seconds, that the error rate has to maintain or surpass the
error rate threshold before it triggers a channel change.
Channel Quality Aware Arm
Shows if ARMchanges are based on on channel quality and noise floor
values. If this parameter is disabled, only noise-floor values will be used
to change channels. Default: Disabled
Channel Quality Threshold
Displays the hannel quality percentage below which ARM initiates a
channel change.
Channel Quality Wait Time
If channel quality is below the specified channel quality threshold for
this wait time period, ARM initiates a channel change.
Minimum Scan Time Time, in seconds, that a channel must be scanned before it is
considered for assignment.
Load aware Scan Threshold The traffic throughput level an AP must reach before it stops scanning,
in bytes/second. A value of 0 to disables this feature.
Mode Aware Arm If enabled, ARM will turn APs into Air Monitors (AMs) if it detects higher
coverage levels than necessary. This helps avoid higher levels of
interference on the WLAN. Although this setting is disabled by default,
you may want to enable this feature if your APs are deployed in close
proximity (e.g. less than 60 feet apart).
Scan Mode This parameter defines the scan mode for the AP.
l all-reg-domain: The AP scans channels within all regulatory
domains. This is the default setting.
l reg-domain:Limit the AP scans to just the regulatory domain for that
AP.
Client Match
The client match feature helps optimize network resources by balancing
clients across channels, regardless of whether the AP or the controller
is responding to the wireless clients' probe requests.
If enabled, the controller compares whether or not an AP has more
clients than its neighboring APs on other channels. If an AP’s client load
is at or over a predetermined threshold as compared to its immediate
neighbors, or if a neighboring Dell AP on another channel does not have
any clients, load balancing will be enabled on that AP. This feature is
enabled by default
Client Match report
interval (sec)
Thisinterval defines how often an AP sends an updated client probe
report to the controller. Each client probe report contains a list of
MACaddresses for clients that have been active in the last two minutes,
and the AP radio SNR values seen by those clients.
Client Match Unsteerable Client
Ageout Interval
The client entries in an unsteerable client list remain in effect for the inter-
val defined by this parameter before they age out.
Client Match Unsteerable
Client Ageout
When client match and the client match unsteerable client ageout feature
are enabled, the controller periodically sends APs that are not a desired
AP match for a client in a list of unsteerable clients. These lists contain a
list of MAC addresses for up to 128 clients that should not be steered to
that AP.
Client Match Sticky Client
Check Interval (sec)
Frequency at which the AP checks for client's received SNR values. If the
SNR value drops below the threshold defined by the cm-sticky-snr para-
meter for three consecutive check intervals, that clientmay be moved to
an different AP.
