Setting Description Defaults
Max Tx EIRP Maximum effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP)
from 3 to 33 dBm in 3 dBm increments. You may
also specify a special value of 127 dBm for
regulatory maximum. Higher power level settings
may be constrained by local regulatory
requirements and AP capabilities. In the event that
an AP is configured for a Max Tx EIRP setting it
cannot support, this value will be reduced to the
highest supported power setting.
NOTE: Power settings will not change if the
Assignment option is set to disabled or
maintain.
In 6.4.4.0 and later
releases:
l default-a: 18 dBm
l default-g: 9 dBm
In earlier 6.4.x
releases:
l default: 127dBm
Min Tx EIRP Minimum effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP)
from 3 to 33 dBm in 3 dBm increments. You may
also specify a special value of 127 dBm for
regulatory maximum to disable power adjustments
for environments such as outdoor mesh links. Note
that power settings will not change if the
Assignment option is set to disabled or
maintain. Higher power level settings may be
constrained by local regulatory requirements and
AP capabilities. In the event that an AP is
configured for a Min Tx EIRP setting it cannot
support, this value will be reduced to the highest
supported power setting.
Default: 9 dBm
NOTE: Consider configuring a Min Tx Power
setting higher than the default value if most of your
APs are on the ceiling. APs on a ceiling often have
good line of sight between them, which will cause
ARM to decrease their power to prevent
interference. However, if the wireless clients down
on the floor do not have such a clear line back to
the AP, you could end up with coverage gaps.
In 6.4.4.0 and later
releases:
l default-a: 12 dBm
l default-g: 6 dBm
In earlier 6.4.x
releases:
l default: 9dBm
Rogue AP Aware If you have enabled both the Scanning and Rogue
AP options, Dell APs may change channels to
contain off-channel rogue APs with active clients.
This security features allows APs to change
channels even if the Client Aware setting is
disabled.
This setting is disabled by default, and should only
be enabled in high-security environments where
security requirements are allowed to consume
higher levels of network resources. You may prefer
to receive Rogue AP alerts via SNMP traps or
syslog events.
Disabled
Scan Interval If Scanning is enabled, the Scan Interval defines
how often the AP will leave its current channel to
scan other channels in the band.
