Command History


Release	Modification
7.6	This command was introduced in a release earlier than Release 7.6.

Usage Guidelines

If you choose 40, be sure to set at least two adjacent channels in the config advanced 802.11 channel {add | delete} channel_number command (for example, a primary channel of 36 and an extension channel of 40). If you set only one channel, that channel is not used for the 40-MHz channel width.

To override the globally configured DCA channel width setting, you can statically configure an access point’s radio for 20- or 40-MHz mode using the config 802.11 chan_width command. If you then change the static configuration to global on the access point radio, the global DCA configuration overrides the channel width configuration that the access point was previously using.

Examples

The following example shows how to add a channel to the 802.11a network auto channel list:


(Cisco Controller) >config advanced 802.11a channel dca chan-width-11n 40

`value`	Valid values are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, or 24 hours. 0 is 10 minutes (600 seconds).

Command Default

The default DCA channel interval is 10 (10 minutes).

Command History


Release	Modification
7.6	This command was introduced in a release earlier than Release 7.6.

Usage Guidelines

If your controller supports only OfficeExtend access points, we recommend that you set the DCA interval to 6 hours for optimal performance. For deployments with a combination of OfficeExtend access points and local access points, the range of 10 minutes to 24 hours can be used.

Examples

The following example shows how often the DCA algorithm is allowed to run:

Command History


Release	Modification
7.6	This command was introduced in a release earlier than Release 7.6.

Usage Guidelines

If you enable coverage hole detection, the Cisco WLC automatically determines, based on data that is received from the access points, whether any access points have clients that are potentially located in areas with poor coverage.

If both the number and percentage of failed packets exceed the values that you entered in the config advanced 802.11 coverage packet-count and config advanced 802.11 coverage fail-rate commands for a 5-second period, the client is considered to be in a pre-alarm condition. The controller uses this information to distinguish between real and false coverage holes and excludes clients with poor roaming logic. A coverage hole is detected if both the number and percentage of failed clients meet or exceed the values entered in the config advanced 802.11 coverage level global and config advanced 802.11 coverage exception global commands over a 90-second period. The Cisco WLC determines whether the coverage hole can be corrected and, if appropriate, mitigates the coverage hole by increasing the transmit power level for that specific access point.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable coverage hole detection on an 802.11a network:


(Cisco Controller) > config advanced 802.11a coverage enable

Command History


Release	Modification
7.6	This command was introduced in a release earlier than Release 7.6.

Usage Guidelines

The rssi value that you enter is used to identify coverage holes (or areas of poor coverage) within your network. If the access point receives a packet in the data or voice queue with an RSSI value that is below the value that you enter, a potential coverage hole has been detected.

The access point takes RSSI measurements every 5 seconds and reports them to the controller in 90-second intervals.

If both the number and percentage of failed packets exceed the values that you entered in the config advanced 802.11 coverage packet-count and config advanced 802.11 coverage fail-rate commands for a 5-second period, the client is considered to be in a pre-alarm condition. The controller uses this information to distinguish between real and false coverage holes and excludes clients with poor roaming logic. A coverage hole is detected if both the number and percentage of failed clients meet or exceed the values entered in the config advanced 802.11 coverage level global and config advanced 802.11 coverage exception global commands over a 90-second period.

To configure Cisco Hyperlocation globally on all APs that have the Cisco Hyperlocation module, use the config advanced hyperlocation command.

config advanced hyperlocation {enable | disable | ntp ipv4-addr | flag-unset ap-name | reset-threshold value | threshold value | trigger-threshold value}

Syntax Description


enable	Enables Cisco Hyperlocation globally on all Cisco APs that have the Cisco Hyperlocation module.
disable	Disables Cisco Hyperlocation globally on all Cisco APs that have the Cisco Hyperlocation module.
ntp `ipv4-addr`	Sets up the NTP server for Cisco Hyperlocation. Enter the IPv4 address of the NTP server that all APs that are involved in this calculation need to synchronize to.
flag-unset `ap-name`	Configures the AP specified to accept any other level of Cisco Hyperlocation configuration.
reset-threshold `value`	Configures PRL reset threshold value below which RSSI is ignored while sending to Cisco WLC.
reset-threshold `value`	Configures the threshold value below which RSSI is ignored while sending to Cisco WLC.
trigger-threshold `value`	Configures the number of scan cycles between PAK RSSI location trigger.

Command Default

Disabled

Usage Guidelines

Cisco Hyperlocation in enabled state has an impact on performance where both radios of APs that do not have Cisco Hyperlocation module go off-channel for about 100 milliseconds every 3 seconds.
We recommend that you use the same NTP server that is used by the general Cisco WLC infrastructure. The scans from multiple AP need to be synchronized for the location to be accurately calculated.
