AP Commands 329
Nortel WLAN—Security Switch 2300 Series Command Line Reference
Usage Use this command to exempt a service profile from RF load balancing. Exempting a
service profile from RF load balancing means that even if an AP radio is attempting to steer clients
away, it does not reduce or conceal the availability of the SSID named in the exempted service
profile. Even if a radio is withholding probe responses to manage its load, the radio does respond to
probes for an exempt SSID. Also, if an AP radio is withholding probe responses, and a client probes
for any SSID, and the radio has at least one exempt SSID, the radio responds to the probe, but the
response reveals only the exempt SSID(s).
Examples The following command exempts service profile sp3 from RF load balancing:
WSS# set service-profile sp3 load-balancing-exempt enable
success: change accepted.
