BSS Transition Management (802.11v)
The 802.11v standard provides Wireless Network Management enhancements to the IEEE 802.11 MAC and
PHY. It extends radio measurements to define mechanisms for wireless network management of stations
including BSS transition management.
W-IAPs support the generation of the BSS transition management request frames to the 802.11k clients when
a suitable W-IAP is identified for a client through Client Match.
Configuring a WLANSSID for 802.11v Support
You can enable 802.11v support on a WLANSSID by using the Instant UI or the CLI.
In the Instant UI
1. Navigate to the WLAN wizard (Go to Network > New OR Go to Network > WLAN SSID and click edit).
2. Click the Security tab.
3. Under Fast Roaming, select the 802.11v check box.
4. Click Next and then click Finish.
In the CLI
To enable 802.11v profile:
(Instant AP)(config)# wlan ssid-profile <name>
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile <name>)# dot11v
(Instant AP)(config)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
Example
(Instant AP)(config)# wlan ssid-profile dot11v-profile
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile "dot11v-profile")# dot11v
(Instant AP)(config)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
Configuring Modulation Rates on a WLAN SSID
W-IAPs allow you to enable or disable modulation rates for a radio band; High Throughput (HT) Modulation
and Coding Scheme (MCS) set; and Very High Throughput (VHT) MCS rates set, when configuring a WLAN SSID
profile. For example, the 802.11g band supports the modulation rate including 1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 24, 36,
48, 54 Mbps and 802.11a band supports a modulation rate set including 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54 Mbps.
