246CHAPTER 10: CONFIGURING MAP ACCESS POINTS

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

To disable the radios that are using radio profile rptest and remove the profile, type the following commands:

WX1200# set radio-profile rptest mode disable WX1200# clear radio-profile rptest success: change accepted.

Configuring This section shows how to configure the channel and transmit power on Radio-Specificindividual radios, and how to configure for external antennas. (For

Parameters information about the parameters you can set on individual radios, see Table 13.)

Configuring the Channel and Transmit Power

To set the channel and transmit power of a radio, use the following commands:

set ap apnumber radio {1 2} channel channel-numberset ap apnumber radio {1 2} tx-power power-level

If RF Auto-Tuning is enabled for channels or power, you cannot set the channels or power manually using the commands in this section. See Chapter 14, “Configuring RF Auto-Tuning,” on page 311.

To set the channel and transmit power of a radio, use the following commands:

set ap apnumber radio {1 2} channel channel-numberset ap apnumber radio {1 2} tx-power power-level

The parameters are shown in separate commands for simplicity. However, you can use the channel and tx-powerparameters on the same command line.

Specify 1 or 2 for the radio number:

„For a single-radio model, specify radio 1.

„For the 802.11b/g radio in a two-radio model, specify radio 1.

„For the 802.11a radio in a two-radio model, specify radio 2.
