Parameter Description Range Default
Noise Immunity feature. l Level 3— Level 2
settings and weak OFDM immunity. This
level minimizes false detects on the radio
due to interference, but may also reduce
radio sensitivity. This level is
recommended for environments with a
high-level of interference related to 2.4
GHz appliances such as cordless phones.
l Level 4— Level 3 settings, and FIR
immunity. At this level, the AP adjusts its
sensitivity to in-band power, which can
improve performance in environments
with high and constant levels of noise
interference.
l Level 5— The AP completely disables PHY
error reporting, improving performance
by eliminating the time the W-IAP would
spend on PHY processing.
NOTE: Increasing the immunity level makes
the AP to lose a small amount of range.
legacy-mode
Enables the W-IAPs to run the radio in non-
802.11n mode.
— Disabled
max-distance <count>
Configures the maximum distance between a
client and an AP or between a mesh point and
a mesh portal in meters. This value is used to
derive ACK and CTS timeout times.
A value of 0 specifies the default settings for
this parameter, where timeouts are only
modified for outdoor mesh radios which use a
distance of 16km.
600-1000 0
spectrum-monitor
Allows the W-IAPs in access mode to continue
with normal access service to clients, while
performing additional function of monitoring RF
interference (from both neighboring APs and
non Wi-Fi sources such as, microwaves and
cordless phones) on the channel they are
currently serving clients.
— Disabled
no…
Removes the configuration. — —
Usage Guidelines
Use this command to create a 2.4 GHz radio profile on a W-IAP.
Example
The following example configures the 2.4GHz radio profile:
(Instant AP)(config)# rf dot11g-radio-profile
(Instant AP)(RF dot11g Radio Profile)# beacon-interval 200
