Concept Guide

Parameter Description Range Default
l Level 2— Noise and spur immunity. This
level also controls the detection of OFDM
packets, and is the default setting for the
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-tx-power <power>
Configures the maximum transmit power
value for the 5 GHz radio profile.
3-max 3 dBm
min-tx-power <power>
Configures the minimum transmit power
value for the 5 GHz radio profile.
3-max 3 dBm
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-band <type>
Allows you to specify the portion of the
channel to monitor for 5 GHz configuration.
