USING RF AUTO-TUNING

 

Overview

RF Auto-Tuning is a technique you can use to configure your RF (radio)

 

network. RF Auto-Tuning is a quick method that requires minimal

 

configuration and no RF planning or site surveys, and instead, relies on

 

the AutoTune feature to set MAP channels and power settings.

 

This is a great way to quickly install a WX switch and MAPs, and observe

 

how the network operates. The RF Auto-Tuning technique is best suited

 

to networks containing fewer MAPs.

 

To learn more about the benefits of RF Auto-Tuning, see “RF

 

Auto-Tuning” on page 32.

To use this technique:

1Physically place your equipment (WX switches and MAPs) in their desired locations.

2Configure initial WX switch connectivity (configure IP addresses and install certificates).

3Upload the WX switch configuration into a 3WXM network plan.

4Create a service profile.

5Create a radio profile (or use the default radio profile).

6Map your service profile to your radio profile.

7Create your MAPs.

8Apply a radio profile to each radio on a MAP.

9Deploy your configuration.
