User Defined RF Domains
Configure and deploy user defined RF Domains for single or multiple sites when controllers or
service platforms require unique regulatory and regional configurations, or unique Smart RF and
WIPS policies. User defined RF Domains can be used to:
• Assign unique Smart RF or WIPS policies to Access Points deployed on different floors or
buildings within a site.
• Assign unique regional or regulatory configurations to Access Points deployed in different
states or countries.
• Assign unique WLAN SSIDs and/or VLAN IDs to sites assigned a common WLAN without having
to define individual WLANs for each site.
User defined RF Domains must be manually assigned to controllers or service platforms, but can
be manually or automatically assigned to Access Points. Manual RF Domain assignment can be
performed using the CLI or UI by modifying each device's individual configuration and assigning a
specific RF Domain to the device. Automatic RF Domain assignments can be made using an AP
provisioning policy which can assign specific RF Domains to Access Points based on an Access
Point’s model, serial number, VLAN, DHCP option, IP address or MAC address.
Automatic RF Domain assignments are useful in large deployments, as they enable plug-n-play
Access Point deployments by automatically applying RF Domains to remote Access Points.
Managing RF Domains
Managing RF Domains entails configuring individual RF Domains as required and managing them
as a collective set.
To review the configurations of existing RF Domains:
1. Select Configuration > RF Domains from the Web UI
The RF Domain screen displays within the main portion of the Web UI, and the RF Domain
Browser displays in the lower, left-hand, portion of the Web UI.
2. Refer to the RF Domain screen to review high-level configuration data for existing RF Domain
policies.
