In the WebUI
To create a new ARM profile with all default settings via the WebUI:
1. Select Configuration > Advanced Services > All Profiles. The All Profile Management window opens.
2. Select RF Management to expand the RF Management section.
3. Select Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) Profile. Any currently defined ARM profiles appears in the
right pane of the window. If you have not yet created any ARM profiles, this pane displays the default
profile only.
4. To create a new profile with all default settings, enter a name in the entry blank. The name must be 1–63
characters, and can be composed of alphanumeric characters, special characters, and spaces. If your profile
name includes a space, it must be enclosed within quotation marks.
5. Click Add. The new profile appears in the ARM profile list.
6. Select the name of that profile to display the current configuration settings of that profile.
To create a new ARM profile via the command-line interface, access the CLI in config mode and issue the
following command:
(host)(config) #rf arm-profile <profile>
The name must be 1–63 characters, and can be composed of alphanumeric characters, special characters and
spaces. If your profile name includes a space, it must be enclosed within quotation marks.
Setting Description
Basic Configuration Settings
Assignment Activates one of four ARM channel/power assignment modes. (The default value is single-
band.)
l disable: Disables ARM calibration and reverts APs back to default channel and power
settings specified by the AP’s radio profile.
l maintain: APs maintain their current channel and power settings. This setting can be
used to maintain AP channel and power levels after ARM has initially selected the best
settings.
l multi-band: For single-radio APs, this value computes ARM assignments for both 5 GHZ
(802.11a) and 2.4 GHZ (802.11b/g) frequency bands.
l single-band: For dual-radio APs, this value enables APs to change transmit power and
channels within their same frequency band, and to adapt to changing channel
conditions.
Allowed
bands for
40MHz
channels
The specified setting allows ARM to determine if 40 MHz mode of operation is allowed on
the 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz frequency band only, on both frequency bands, or on neither
frequency band.
80MHz sup-
port
If enabled, this feature allows ARM to assign 80 MHz channels on APs that support VHT. This
setting is enabled by default.
