Radio Resource Management (802.11k)
The 802.11k protocol provides mechanisms for APs and clients to dynamically measure the available radio
resources. In an 802.11k enabled network, APs and clients can send neighbor reports, beacon reports, and link
measurement reports to each other. This allows the APs and clients to take appropriate connection actions.
The handover process is available for voice clients that support the 802.11k standard and have the ability to transmit
and receive beacon reports. For information on configuring the handoff trigger feature, see Enabling Wi-Fi Edge
Detection and Handover for Voice Clients on page 970
