Chapter 9 Configuring Radio Resource Management

Configuring Dynamic RRM

Table 9-1 RRM Parameters (continued)

Parameter

Description

 

 

Avoid Cisco AP Load

Causes the controller’s RRM algorithms to consider 802.11 traffic from

 

Cisco lightweight access points in your wireless network when

 

assigning channels. For example, RRM can assign better reuse patterns

 

to access points that carry a heavier traffic load.

 

Options: Enabled or Disabled

 

Default: Disabled

 

 

Avoid Non-802.11a

Causes the controller’s RRM algorithms to consider noise (non-802.11

(802.11b) Noise

traffic) in the channel when assigning channels to lightweight access

 

points. For example, RRM may have access points avoid channels with

 

significant interference from non-access point sources, such as

 

microwave ovens.

 

Options: Enabled or Disabled

 

Default: Enabled

 

 

The following non-configurable RF channel parameter settings are also shown:

Signal Strength Contribution—This parameter is always enabled. RRM constantly monitors the relative location of all access points within the RF group to ensure near-optimal channel reuse.

Channel Assignment Leader—The MAC address of the RF group leader, which is responsible for channel assignment.

Last Auto Channel Assignment—The last time RRM evaluated the current channel assignments.
