Parameter

Description

802.11g Beacon Rate

Click this drop-down list to select the beacon rate for 802.11g (use for Distributed Antenna

 

System (DAS) only). Using this parameter in normal operation may cause connectivity

 

problems.

 

 

802.11a Beacon Rate

Click this drop-down list to select the beacon rate for 802.11a (use for Distributed Antenna

 

System (DAS) only). Using this parameter in normal operation may cause connectivity

 

problems.

 

 

Advertise QBSS Load IE

Click this checkbox to enable the AP to advertise the QBSS load element. The element includes

 

the following parameters that provide information on the traffic situation:

 

• Station count: The total number of stations associated to the QBSS.

 

• Channel utilization: The percentage of time (normalized to 255) the channel is sensed to be

 

busy. The access point uses either the physical or the virtual carrier sense mechanism to

 

sense a busy channel.

 

• Available admission capacity: The remaining amount of medium time (measured as number

 

of 32us/s) available for a station via explicit admission control.

 

The QAP uses these parameters to decide whether to accept an admission control request. A

 

wireless station uses these parameters to choose the appropriate access points.

 

NOTE: Ensure that WMM is enabled for legacy APs to advertise the QBSS load element. For

 

802.11n APs, ensure that either wmm or high throughput is enabled.

 

 

Advertise Location

When this option is enabled, APs broadcast their location within a IE carried in Beacon frames

Information

and Probe Response frames. The AP’s latitude, longitude and altitude can be configured on the

 

Configuration > Wireless> AP Installation page of the controller WebUI, or using the provision-

 

ap command in the controller command-line interface.

 

 

Advertise AP Name

If this parameter enabled, APs will broadcast the AP name configured by the ap-namecom-

 

mand. This option is disabled by default.
