Configuring RF load balancing for APs 255
Nortel WLAN—Security Switch 2300 Series Configuration Guide

Exempting an SSID from RF load balancing

By default, RF load balancing is applied to client sessions for all SSIDs. To specifically exempt an SSID from load
balancing, use the following command:
set service-profile service-profile-name load-balancing-exempt {enable | disable}
When you exempt a service profile from RF load balancing, an AP radio attempting to steer clients a way does not
reduce or conceal the availability of the SSID in the profile. If a radio withholds probe responses to manage the client
load, the radio does respond to probes for an exempt SSID. Also, if an AP radio is withholding probe responses, and a
client probes for any SSID, and the radio has at least one exempt SSID, the radio responds to the probe, but the response
reveals only the exempt SSID(s).

Displaying RF load balancing information

The show load-balancing group command displays a load balancing group member radios and current load for each
radio. For example:
WSS# show load-balancing group ap 2 radio 1
Radios in the same load-balancing group as: ap2/radio1
--------------------------------------------------
WSS IP address Port Radio Overlap

WSS# show load-balancing group all
Load-balancing group: G1
