288AP Commands

across the AP radios in the load-balancing group. When low strictness is specified (the default), WSS Software makes heavily loaded AP radios less visible in order to steer clients to less-busy AP radios, but ensures that even if all the AP radios in the group are heavily loaded, clients are not denied service.

At the other end of the spectrum, when max strictness is specified, if an AP radio has reached its maximum client load, WSS Software makes it invisible to new clients, causing them to attempt to connect to other AP radios. In the event that all the AP radios in the group have reached their maximum client load, then no new clients would be able to connect to the network.

Examples The following command sets the RF load balancing strictness to the maximum setting:

WSS# set load-balancing strictness max

Success: strictness set to "MAX"

set radio-profile active-scan

Disables or reenables active RF detection scanning on the AP radios managed by a radio profile. When active scanning is enabled, AP radios look for rogue devices by sending probe any requests (probe requests with a null SSID name), to solicit probe responses from other access points.

Passive scanning is always enabled and cannot be disabled. During passive scanning, radios look for rogues by listening for beacons and probe responses.

Syntax set radio-profile name active-scan {enable disable}

name	Radio profile name.
enable	Configures radios to actively scan for rogues.
disable	Configures radios to scan only passively for rogues by listening for
	beacons and probe responses.

Defaults Active scanning is enabled by default.

Access Enabled.
