Radio
Overview
The Radio module is used to set RF parameters of the AP. This section describes some functions of
the module.
Inter-SSID User Isolation
This function isolates the wireless clients connected to different wireless networks corresponding to
the same RF band. For example, if user 1 connects to the wireless network corresponding to SSID1
of RF band 1, whereas user 2 connects to the wireless network corresponding to SSID2 of RF band
1, the two users cannot communicate with each other after inter-SSID user isolation is implemented
for RF band 1.
Client Load Balancing
If an AP uses two or more identical RF bands, wireless clients may not be evenly connected to the
RF bands, resulting in traffic imbalance between the RF bands. Client load balancing appropriately
achieve balance between the RF bands to effectively optimize network resource usage.
When the number of users connected to an RF band of the AP reaches the threshold specified by
Client Load Balancing Threshold, client load balancing is performed.
The following figure provides an example. RF band 1 and 3 of the AP are 2.4 GHz bands. Client 1
connects to RF band 1, whereas clients 2 to 6 connect to RF band 2. If
client load balancing is
enabled, the
client load balancing threshold is 5, and the client load balancing offset is 4, when client
7 sends a connection request to RF band 2, client 7 is connected to RF band 1 because the
threshold and offset of RF band 2 has been reached.
