Table 19: Defaults for RF Auto-Tuning Parameters

	Default	Radio Behavior When
Parameter		Parameter Set To Default
	Value
		Value
Radio profile parameters
channel-config	enable	When the radio is first enabled,
		RF Auto-Tuning sets the channel based
		on the channels in use on neighboring
		access ports.
channel-interval	3600	Every 3600 seconds, WSS Software
		examines the RF information gathered
		from the network and determines
		whether the channel needs to be
		changed to compensate for RF changes.
channel-holddown	900	WSS Software maintains the channel
		setting on a radio for at least 900
		seconds regardless of RF changes.
power-config	disable	WSS Software uses the highest power
		level allowed for the country of
		operation or the highest supported by
		the hardware, whichever is lower.
power-interval	300	Every 300 seconds, WSS Software
		examines the RF information gathered
		from the network and determines
		whether the power needs to be changed
		to compensate for RF changes.
power-backoff-timer	10	If RF Auto-Tuning has increased power
		due to unacceptably high packet
		retransmissions or to maintain at least
		the minimum data rate for clients, and
		those conditions are no longer
		occurring, the radio reduces power by
		1 dBm every 10 seconds, so long as the
		conditions do not recur.
Individual radio parameters
max-power	Maximum	RF Auto-Tuning never sets a radio’s
	allowed for	power to a level that is higher than the
	country of	maximum allowed for the country of
