Enabling and Disabling 802.11 Bands

You can enable or disable the 802.11b/g (2.4-GHz) and the 802.11a (5-GHz) bands for the controller to comply with the regulatory requirements in your country. By default, both 802.11b/g and 802.11a are enabled.

On the CLI, enter config 80211b disable network to disable 802.11b/g operation on the controller. Enter config 80211b enable network to re-enable 802.11b/g operation.
