Creating a New Profile

To create a radio profile, use the following command:

set radio-profile name [mode {enable disable}]

Specify a name of up to 16 alphanumeric characters. Do not include the mode enable or mode disable option.

After you create the radio profile, you can use the enable and disable options to enable or disable all radios that use the profile.

To configure a new radio profile named rp1, type the following command:

WX1200# set radio-profile rp1 success: change accepted.

To assign the profile to one or more radios, use the set ap radio radio-profilecommand. (See “Assigning a Radio Profile and Enabling Radios” on page 249.)

Changing Radio Parameters

To change individual parameters controlled by a radio profile, use the commands described in the following sections.

You must disable all radios that are using a radio profile before you can change parameters in the profile. (See “Disabling or Reenabling All Radios Using a Profile” on page 250.)

Changing the Beacon Interval The beacon interval is the rate at which a radio advertises its beaconed SSID(s). To change the beacon interval, use the following command:

set radio-profile name beacon-interval interval

The interval can be a value from 25 ms through 8191 ms. The default is 100.

The beacon interval does not change even when advertisement is enabled for multiple SSIDs. MSS still sends one beacon for each SSID during each beacon interval.

To change the beacon interval for radio profile rp1 to 200 ms, type the following command:

WX1200# set radio-profile rp1 beacon-interval 200 success: change accepted.
