302 Configuring the Wi-Fi Array

19. Channel List Selection: This list selects which channels are available to

the auto channel algorithm. Channels that are not checked are left out of

the auto channel selection process. Note that channels that have been

locked by the user are also not available to the auto channel algorithm.

20. Auto Channel List: Use All Channels selects all available channels (this

does not include locked channels). Use Defaults sets the auto channel list

back to the defaults. This omits newer channels (100-140) — many

wireless NICs don’t support these channels.

21. Public Safety: This option adds two additional channels (191 and 195) in

the 4.9GHz spectrum range for public safety usage by qualified

organizations. Operating these channels requires a license, and so they

are not for general purpose use. Using these channels without a license

violates FCC rules. Warning notices are displayed when you enable this

feature and select these channels. All 802.11a(n) and 802.11a/b/g(/n)

radios may be set to these channels.
