Radio Profile
The Radio Profile tab provides a mechanism to configure the Radio attributes of the Access Point. The number of Radio Profiles for an Access Point depends on the number of Radios that an Access Point has.
-
Name: A unique name for a radio of an Access Point. This is pre-populated and cannot be changed.
-
Type: Specifies the type of the radio. This is pre-populated and cannot be changed.
-
Mode: If a radio of an Access Point is of type 11a, Mode can be either AC or N provided they are supported by the underlying hardware. If a radio of an Access Point is of type b/g/n, then the radio mode is internally defaulted to N and the same is not displayed on the UI.
-
Channel: Indicates the channel on which the Access Point will broadcast SSID’s. Select the desired Channel from the dropdown.
-
HT Mode: Indicates the width of the channel. Higher the width of the channel, greater is the throughput but the downsize is the higher probability of conflicts with adjacent channels.
-
Power: Indicates the power of the Radio. Greater the power, higher is the range of the WiFi(SSID) signal.
