Field Description
BSS Color Configures support for 802.11ax BSS coloring and assigns the
BSS color associated with the radio. BSS coloring is a means by
which 802.11ax radios dierentiate between overlapping Basic
Service Sets (BSSs) in multi-path channels. A BSS represents a
set of communicating devices consisting of one AP radio and
one or more client stations. In an 802.11ax-enabled wireless
network, each BSS is identified by a numerical identifier (the
BSS color) added to the header of the PHY frame. BSS coloring
impacts channel access behavior and spatial reuse operations.
Based on the BSS color detected, APs can assign a new
channel access behavior. Spatial reuse is another advantage of
enabling BSS color. It applies adaptive Clear Channel
Assessment (CCA) thresholds for detected Overlapping BSS
(OBSS) frame transmissions, which enables APs to ignore
transmissions from an OBSS and transmit at the same time.
BSS color support is disabled by default.
Supported on the following 802.11ax APs:
AP310i/e
AP360i/e
AP4000
AP410i/e
AP460i/e
AP505i
AP510i/e
AP560i/h
Target Wake Time Enables 11ax Target Wake Time (TWT) support on the radio. The
IEEE 802.11ax standard defines power-saving enhancements
and improved resource scheduling features, such as scheduled
sleep and wake times. TWT allows devices (APs and stations)
to negotiate when and how frequently they will wake up to
send or receive data. TWT increases device sleep time, thereby
substantially improving the battery life of the client device.
TWT is enabled by default.
Supported on the following 802.11ax APs:
AP310i/e
AP360i/e
AP4000
AP410i/e
AP460i/e
AP505i
AP510i/e
AP560i/h
Cell Size Control
Probe Suppression on Low RSS Reduces the number of probe responses by preventing clients
with low RSS from associating with an AP radio. This setting is
configured per radio. Clients with RSS measured below the
Probe Suppression RSS Threshold will not associate with the
AP. This setting is disabled by default.
