Concept Guide

Parameter Description Range Default
dynamic-bw-clear-time
Dynamic Bandwidth Switch
back to 80MHz channel after
the clear time in mins if
currently there is no high
volume of traffic.
1-300 seconds
30
dynamic-bw-wait-time
Minimum time in seconds
dynamic bandwidth switch
indicators have to be true to
trigger a 80MHz to 40MHz
bandwidth change.
1-300 seconds
30
error-rate-
threshold
The percentage of errors in
the channel that triggers a
channel change.
Recommended value is 50%.
A value of 0% disables this
feature.
0-100 default-a: 70%
default-g: 70%
error-rate-wait
-time
Time, in seconds, that the
error rate has to be at least
the error rate threshold to
trigger a channel change.
Supported range is 1-
2,147,483,647
Recommended Values: 1-100

default-a: 90
sec
default-g: 90
sec
free-channel-
index
The difference in the
interference index between
the new channel and current
channel must exceed this
value for the AP to move to a
new channel. The higher this
value, the lower the chance
an AP will move to the new
channel. Recommended
value is 25.
10-40 default-a: 40
default-g: 25
ideal-coverage-
index
The coverage that the AP
should try to achieve on its
channel. The denser the AP
deployment, the lower this
value should be.
Recommended value is 10.
2-20 default-a: 6
default-g: 6
interfering-ap-weight <number>
Weight of interfering APs in
interference index
calculation. When the weight
is 0, ARM ignores all the
interfering APs
(uncontrollable APs). When
the weight is 100%,
interfering AP has the same
weight as valid AP.
