Parameter Description Range Default
Transmission power may be further limited by
regulatory domain constraints and AP capabilities.
Usage Guidelines
This command configures radios that operate in the 5 GHz frequency band, which includes radios utilizing the
IEEE 802.11a or IEEE 802.11n standard. Channels must be valid for the country configured in the AP regulatory
domain profile (see "ap regulatory-domain-profile" on page 146).
To view the supported channels, use the show ap allowed-channels command.
Examples
The following command configures APs to operate in AM mode for the selected dot11a-radio-profile named
“samplea:”
(host) (config) #rf dot11a-radio-profile samplea mode am-mode
The following command configures APs to operate in high-throughput (802.11n) mode on the
5 Ghz frequency band for the selected dot11a-radio profile named “samplea” and assigns a high-throughout radio
profile named “default-a:”
(host) (config) #rf dot11a-radio-profile samplea
high-throughput-enable
ht-radio-profile default-a
The following command configures a primary channel number of 157 and a secondary channel number of 161 for 40
MHz mode of operation for the selected dot11a-radio profile named “samplea:”
(host) (config) #rf dot11a-radio-profile samplea
channel <157+>
