Type Field Description
Configuration APs have configured
unsupported functionality
The following AP models do not support IoT and
the 5GHz radio does not support 160MHz
operation:
• AP310i-1
• AP410i-1
• AP510i-1
For more information about channel width, see
Channel and Power Settings on page 165.
Configuration Radio in sensor mode with no
scan profiles assigned
Indicates that you have a radio in Sensor mode
without a corresponding AirDefense or
ExtremeLocation profile configuration. Scan
functionality requires that you configure a radio
for Sensor mode and configure Profile settings for
AirDefense or ExtremeLocation. All configuration
is handled in the configuration Profile that is
assigned to the device group. See Add or Edit a
Configuration Profile on page 122.
Configuration Number of SSIDs per Radio One radio can support a maximum of eight SSIDs.
However, it is a best practice to configure no more
than four SSIDs to a single radio. This
configuration can be at the Profile level or
configured as an override for a specific AP. See
Add or Edit a Configuration Profile on page 122. A
green check mark indicates that four or less SSIDs
are configured. A yellow warning indicates that
more than four SSID are configured for a single
radio.
Configuration Band steering enabled and 5GHz
radio disabled
Client Band Steering steers dual-band capable
clients to connect to the 5.0 GHz radio band
instead of the 2.4 GHz radio band. A 5.0 GHz radio
must be enabled on the AP for Client Band
Steering to function. See Band Steering on page
258.
Operational AP recommended version image APs are not running the recommended version
image. Run the supported AP firmware version.
Running other firmware revisions can lead to
unexpected results. See Upgrade AP Images on
page 362.
Configuration 40 MHz channel width on
2.4GHz radio
Operating a 40MHz channel in a 2.4 GHz band can
cause co-channel inference with access points in
the vicinity. The 2.4 GHz band has limited available
channels. Therefore, for proper channel isolation, a
2.4 GHz band allows 3-4 (region dependent) 20
MHz channels. Best practice is to configure a
40MHz channel on a 5 GHz radio. See Channel and
Power Settings on page 165.
