Setting

Description

VoIP Aware

Dell’s VoIP Call Admission Control (CAC) prevents any single AP from becoming congested with voice

Scan

calls. When you enable CAC, you should also enable VoIP Aware Scan in the ARM profile, so the AP will

 

not attempt to scan a different channel if one of its clients has an active VoIP call. This option requires

 

that Scanning is also enabled.

 

Default: disabled

 

 

Power Save

If enabled, the AP will not scan a different channel if it has one or more clients that is in power save

Aware Scan

mode.

 

Default: disabled

 

 

Video Aware

As long as there is at least one video frame every 100 mSec the AP will reject an ARM scanning request.

Scan

Note that for each radio interface, video frames must be defined in one of two ways:

 

Classify the frame as video traffic via a session ACL.

 

Enable WMM on the WLAN’s SSID profile and define a specific DSCP value as a video stream. Next,

 

create a session ACL to tag the video traffic with the that DSCP value.

 

 

Minimum Scan

Minimum number of times a channel must be scanned before it is considered for assignment. The

Time

supported range for this setting is 0–2,147,483,647 scans. Dell recommends a Minimum Scan Time

 

between 1–20 scans.

 

Default: 8 scans

 

 

Scan Mode

By default, 802.11n-capable APs scan channels within all regulatory domains. To limit the AP scans to just

 

the regulatory domain for that AP, click the Scan Mode drop-down list and select reg-domain.

 

NOTE: This setting does not apply to APs that do not support 802.11n; these APs will scan their regulatory

 

domain only.

 

 

Advanced Configuration Settings

 

 

Assignment

Activates one of four ARM channel/power assignment modes.

 

disable: Disables ARM calibration and reverts APs back to default channel and power settings

 

specified by the AP’s radio profile

 

maintain: APs maintain their current channel and power settings. This setting can be used to

 

maintain AP channel and power levels after ARM has initially selected the best settings.

 

multi-band: For single-radio APs, this value computes ARM assignments for both 5 GHZ (802.11a) and

 

2.4 GHZ (802.11b/g) frequency bands.

 

single-band: For dual-radio APs, this value enables APs to change transmit power and channels

 

within their same frequency band, and to adapt to changing channel conditions.

 

Default: single-band

 

 

Allowed bands

The specified setting allows ARM to determine if 40 MHz mode of operation is allowed on the 5 GHz or 2.4

for 40MHz

GHz frequency band only, on both frequency bands, or on neither frequency band.

channels

 

 

 

Client Aware

If the Client Aware option is enabled, the AP does not change channels if there is an active client

 

associated to that AP. (Activity is defined by the sta-inactivity-timeparameter in the IDS general profile.

 

By default, a client is considered active if it has sent or received traffic within the last 60 seconds.)

 

If Client Aware is disabled, the AP may change to a more optimal channel, but this change may also

 

disrupt current client traffic.

 

Default: enabled

 

 

Max Tx EIRP

Maximum effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) from 3 to 33 dBm in 3 dBm increments. You may also

 

specify a special value of 127 dBm for regulatory maximum. Higher power level settings may be

 

constrained by local regulatory requirements and AP capabilities. In the event that an AP is configured

 

for a Max Tx EIRP setting it cannot support, this value will be reduced to the highest supported power

 

setting.

 

Default: 127 dBm

 

NOTE: Power settings will not change if the Assignment option is set to disabled or maintain.
