22. Set the following Interference Recovery parameters:

23. Select OK to update the Smart RF Interference Recovery settings. Select Reset to revert to the

last saved configuration.

24. Select the Coverage Hole Recovery tab.

Interference

Select this radio button to allow Smart RF to scan for excess interference from supported radio
devices. WLANs are susceptible to sources of interference, such as neighboring radios, cordless
phones, microwave ovens and Bluetooth devices. When interference for WiFi sources is detected,
Smart RF supported devices can change the channel and move to a cleaner channel. This feature is
enabled by default.

Noise

Select this radio button to allow Smart RF to scan for excess noise from WiFi devices. When detected,
Smart RF supported access points can change their channel and move to a cleaner channel. This
feature is enabled by default.

Channel Hold Time

Defines the minimum time between channel changes during neighbor recovery. Set the time in either
Seconds (0 - 86,400), Minutes (0 - 1,440) or Hours (0 - 24) or Days (0 - 1). The default setting is 30
minutes.

Client Threshold

Use the spinner to set a client threshold from 1 - 255. If the threshold defined number of clients are
connected to a radio, the radio does not change its channel, even though required, based on the
interference recovery determination made by the smart master. The default setting is 50.

5 GHz Channel Switch
Delta

Use the spinner to set a channel switch delta (from 5 - 35 dBm) for the 5.0 GHz radio. This parameter
is the difference between noise levels on the current channel and a prospective channel. If the
difference is below the configured threshold, the channel will not change. The default setting is 20
dBm.

2.4 GHz Channel Switch
Delta

Use the spinner to set a channel switch delta (from 5 - 35 dBm) for the 2.4 GHz radio. This parameter
is the difference between noise levels on the current channel and a prospective channel. If the
difference is below the configured threshold, the channel will not change. The default setting is 20
dBm.
