Parameters

channel-number: Specifies a channel by its number. The value range for this argument varies by country code and radio mode.

auto lock: Configures the AP to automatically select a channel for a radio and lock the channel.

auto unlock: Configures the AP to automatically select a channel for a radio and not lock the channel.

Usage guidelines

When radar signals are detected on the working channel of a radio, either of the following events occurs:

· If the channel is a manually specified channel, the radio changes its channel, and switches back to the specified channel after 30 minutes. Then the radio starts the quiet timer. If no radar signals are detected within the quiet time, the radio starts to use the channel. If radar signals are detected within the quiet time, the radio changes its channel.

· If the channel is an automatically assigned channel, the system automatically selects a new channel for the radio and the radio immediately changes its channel.

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Examples

# Specify working channel 149 for AP ap1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] wlan ap ap1 model WA4320i-ACN

[Sysname-wlan-ap-ap1] radio 1

Parameters

20: Sets the bandwidth mode to 20 MHz.

40: Sets the bandwidth mode to 40 MHz.

80: Sets the bandwidth mode to 80 MHz.

auto-switch: Allows a radio to switch its bandwidth mode between 20 MHz and 40 MHz. This keyword is applicable only to 802.11gn radios.

Usage guidelines

If the bandwidth mode is set to 40 MHz, the radio uses the 40 MHz bandwidth if two adjacent channels that can be bound together exist. If there are no adjacent channels that can be bound together, the radio uses the 20 MHz bandwidth.

If the bandwidth mode is set to 80 MHz, the radio uses the 80 MHz bandwidth if adjacent channels that can be bound together exist. If adjacent channels can be bound to an 80 MHz channel do not exist, but two adjacent channels that can be bound to a 40 MHz channel exist, the 40 MHz bandwidth is used. If there are no adjacent channels that can be bound together, the radio uses the 20 MHz bandwidth.

This command is applicable only to 802.11n and 802.11ac radios. When you change the mode of a radio, the default setting of this command for the new radio mode is restored.

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Parameters

antenna-gain: Specifies the antenna gain in the range of 0 to 20 dBi.

Usage guidelines

This command is applicable only when an AP uses a third-party antenna.

Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) is the actual transmit power of an antenna, and it is the sum of the antenna gain and the maximum transmit power of the radio. If the configured antenna gain causes the EIRP to exceed the threshold, the antenna gain configuration fails.

Make sure the antenna gain setting is the same as the gain of the antenna used on the AP.

Changing the radio mode automatically changes the antenna gain.

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Usage guidelines

802.11g or 802.11n devices send RTS/CTS or CTS-to-self packets before sending data only when 802.11b signals are detected on the channel.

802.11g protection automatically takes effect when 802.11b clients associate with an 802.11g or 802.11n (2.4 GHz) AP.

This command is applicable only to 802.11g and 802.11n (2.4 GHz) radios. If you change the mode of a radio to a mode other than 802.11g or 802.11n (2.4 GHz), 802.11g protection configuration is removed.

Usage guidelines

This command is applicable only to 802.11n and 802.11ac radios. Changing the radio mode to 802.11a, 802.11b, or 802.11g invalidates the command.

The multicast MCS index takes effect only when the radio associates only with 802.11n clients.

If non-802.11n clients exist, the AP and clients use the 802.11a/b/g multicast rate to multicast packets.

The multicast MCS index maps to a rate in 20 MHz bandwidth mode regardless of whether the bandwidth mode is 20 MHz or 40 MHz.

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Parameters

size: Specifies the fragmentation threshold in the range of 256 to 2346 bytes. The value for this argument must be an even number.

Usage guidelines

Frames larger than the fragmentation threshold are fragmented before transmission. Frames smaller than the fragmentation threshold are transmitted without fragmentation.

In a WLAN with great interference, decrease the fragmentation threshold to improve the network throughput and efficiency

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Usage guidelines

This command is applicable only to 802.11n and 802.11ac radios. Changing the radio mode to 802.11a, 802.11b, or 802.11g invalidates the command.

After you enable the energy-saving feature, the multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) mode of a radio automatically changes to 1x1 if no clients associate with the radio. This reduces power consumption.

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Parameters

count: Specifies the maximum number of retransmissions for large frames, in the range of 1 to 15.

Usage guidelines

Large frames are frames larger than the RTS threshold. If the device fails to receive a packet when the maximum number of retransmissions is reached, it discards the packet and notifies upper layer protocols of the transmission failure.

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Examples

# (ACs.) Set the maximum number of retransmissions for large frames to 5 for AP ap1.

Parameters

radio-power: Specifies the maximum transmit power. The value range for this argument varies by device model.

Usage guidelines

The transmit power range supported by a radio varies by country code, channel, AP model, radio mode, antenna type, and bandwidth mode. If you change these attributes for a radio after you set the maximum transmit power, the configured maximum transmit power might be out of the supported transmit power range. If this happens, the system automatically adjusts the maximum transmit power to a valid value.

If you enable power lock, the locked power becomes the maximum transmit power.

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Examples

# (ACs.) Set the maximum transmit power to 15 dBm for AP ap1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] wlan ap ap1 model WA4320i-ACN

[Sysname-wlan-ap-ap1] radio 1

Usage guidelines

If you enable power lock, the current power is locked and becomes the maximum transmit power. The locked power still takes effect after the AC restarts.

If a radio enabled with power lock switches to a new channel that provides lower power than the locked power, the maximum power supported by the new channel takes effect.

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Examples

# Enable power lock for AP ap1.

Parameters

cts-to-self: Specifies the CTS-to-self mode.

rts-cts: Specifies the RTS/CTS mode.

Usage guidelines

You can specify either of the following collision avoidance modes for an AP:

· RTS/CTS—An AP sends an RTS packet to a client before sending data to the client. After receiving the RTS packet, the client sends a CTS packet to the AP. The AP begins to send data after receiving the CTS packet, and other devices that detect the RTS or CTS packet do not send data within a specific time period.

· CTS-to-self—An AP sends a CTS packet with its own MAC address as the destination MAC address before sending data to a client. After receiving the CTS-to-self packet, the AP begins to send data, and other devices that detect the CTS-to-self packet do not send data within a specific time period.

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Parameters

count: Specifies the maximum number of retransmissions for small frames, in the range of 1 to 15.

Usage guidelines

Small frames are frames smaller than or equal to the RTS threshold. If the device fails to receive a packet when the maximum number of retransmissions is reached, it discards the packet and notifies upper layer protocols of the transmission failure.

The configuration in radio view takes precedence over the configuration in AP group radio view.

Examples

# (ACs.) Set the maximum number of retransmissions for small frames to 10 for AP ap1.

<Sysname> system-view
