To configure
channel, TX power, and channel bandwidth for the radios, disable the radio
first, make the changes and then re-enable it.
To change the 2.4GHz radio
to channel 6, follow the steps below:
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11b disable <ap name>
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11b channel <ap name> <ap name> 6
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11b enable <ap name>
To change
the 2.4GHz radio Transmit Power to power level 3, follow the steps below:
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11b disable <ap name>
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11b txPower <ap name> <ap name> 3
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11b enable <ap name>
To change the 5 GHz radio to
channel 44, follow the steps below:
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11a disable <ap name>
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11a channel <ap name> <ap name> 44
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11a enable <ap name>
To change the 5 GHz radio
Transmit Power to level 5, follow the steps below:
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11a disable <ap name>
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11a txPower <ap name> <ap name> 5
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11a enable <ap name>
To change the 5 GHz radio
channel width to 40MHz, follow the steps below:
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11a disable <ap name>
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11a chan_width <ap name> 40
(Cisco Controller)>config 802.11a enable <ap name>
If 2800 and
3800 series access points are being used for Site Survey, please note the
following with respect to the XOR radio.
-
Default
operation state of XOR radio is 2.4GHz.
-
One can
configure the XOR radio on internal (I) Access Points from 2.4GHz to 5 and vice
versa. On an external (E) Access Point, one must have an external antenna
plugged into the DART connector prior to changing any configuration on the XOR
radio.
-
When the
XOR (2.4 GHz) radio is configured to operate at 5GHz, 100MHz frequency
separation is required from dedicated 5GHz radio.
-
When the
XOR radio is configured to operate in 5GHz mode on an internal (I) Access
Points, the Transmit power (tx) power will be fixed and cannot be modified.
To configure the XOR
(2.4GHz) radio to operate at 5GHz on 2800 and 3800 Series Access Points, follow
the steps below:
(Cisco Controller) >config 802.11-abgn disable ap
(Cisco Controller) >config 802.11-abgn role ap manual client-serving
(Cisco Controller) >config 802.11-abgn band ap ap 5GHz
(Cisco Controller) >config 802.11-abgn enable ap
To configure
the XOR radio operating at 5 GHz to channel 40, follow the steps below:
(Cisco Controller) >config 802.11-abgn disable ap
(Cisco Controller) >config 802.11-abgn channel ap ap 40
(Cisco Controller) >config 802.11-abgn enable ap
To configure
the XOR radio operating at 5 GHz channel width to 40MHz, follow the steps
below:
(Cisco Controller) >config 802.11-abgn disable ap
(Cisco Controller) >config 802.11-abgn chan_width ap 40
(Cisco Controller) >config 802.11-abgn enable ap
