Description

Value

Default

 

 

 

 

Roam Trigger

If RSSI from AP is less than roam

dBm: -50, -55, -60, -65,

-75

 

trigger value, radio performs roam scan

-70, -75, Custom

 

 

or probes for an AP with stronger

 

 

 

signal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Roam Delta

Amount by which second AP’s RSSI

dBm: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25,

10

 

must exceed the moving average RSSI

30, 35, Custom

 

 

for the current AP before the radio will

 

 

 

attempt to roam to a second AP.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Roam Period

Following an association or roam scan

Seconds: 5, 10, 15, 20,

10

 

(with no roam), the number of seconds

25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50,

 

 

the radio collects RSSI scan data before

55, 60, Custom

 

 

considering roaming.

 

 

 

 

 

 

BG Channel Set

Defines the 2.4 GHz channels to be

Full (all channels)

Full

 

scanned when the radio is set to roam

1, 6, 11

 

 

and needs to determine what APs are

available.

Aggressive Scan

When this setting is On and the current

Off, On

On

 

connection to an AP becomes unrelia-

 

 

 

ble, the radio scans for available APs

 

 

 

more aggressively. Aggressive scan-

 

 

 

ning complements and works in con-

 

 

 

junction with the standard scanning

 

 

 

that is configured through the Roam

 

 

 

Trigger, Roam Delta, and Roam Period

 

 

 

settings. It is recommended that

 

 

 

Aggressive Scan is left On unless there

 

 

 

is significant co-channel interference

 

 

 

because of overlapping coverage from

 

 

 

APs on the same channel.
