Configuring a radio profile

A radio profile is a set of parameters that apply to multiple radios. You can easily assign configuration param-
eters to many radios by configuring a profile and assigning the profile to the radios.
To configure a radio profile:
Create a new profile.
Change radio parameters.
Map the radio profile to one or more service profiles.
(For a list of the parameters controlled by radio profiles and their defaults, see Table 8 on page 285.)
The channel number, transmit power, and external antenna type are unique to each radio and are not controlled
by radio profiles. (To configure these parameters, see “Configuring radio-specific parameters” on page 317.)
(To display radio profile information, see “Displaying radio profile information” on page 347.)

Creating a new profile

To create a radio profile, use the following command:
set radio-profile name [mode {enable | disable}]
Specify a name of up to 16 alphanumeric characters. Do not include the mode enable or mode disable option.
After you create the radio profile, you can use the enable and disable options to enable or disable all radios
that use the profile.
To configure a new radio profile named rp1, type the following command:
WSS# set radio-profile rp1
success: change accepted.
To assign the profile to one or more radios, use the set ap radio radio-profile command. (See “Assigning a
radio profile and enabling radios” on page 337.)

Changing radio parameters

To change individual parameters controlled by a radio profile, use the commands described in the following
sections.
Note. You must disable all radios that are using a radio profile before you can change
parameters in the profile. (See “Disabling or reenabling all radios using a profile” on
page 339.)
