Table 18 describes the Channel Plan History fields
Table 18. Channel Plan History
Field | Description |
802.11a | The 802.11a and 802.11g radios use different channel plans, so the switch |
802.11g | tracks the channel history separately for each radio. The channel information |
| that displays on the page is only for the radio you select. |
|
|
Operational Status | This field shows whether the switch is using the automatic channel |
| adjustment algorithm on the |
|
|
Last Iteration | The number in this field indicates the last iteration of channel plan |
| adjustments. The APs that received a channel adjustment in previous |
| iterations cannot be assigned new channels in the next iteration to prevent the |
| same APs from being changed time after time. |
| On the AP Management > RF Management > Configuration tab, you can |
| set the history depth to control the maximum number of iterations stored and |
| displayed in the channel plan history. |
|
|
Last Algorithm | Shows the date and time when the channel plan algorithm last ran. |
Time | NOTE: To set the system time on the switch, you must use SNTP, which is |
| |
| disabled by default. From the Web interface, you configure the SNTP client |
| and server information from the LAN > Administration > SNTP Settings |
| page. From the CLI, use the sntp commands in Global Config mode. |
AP MAC Address | This table displays the channel assigned to an AP in an iteration of the |
Location | channel plan. |
