Blocking Channels from DFS Selection
If your regulatory domain limits the channels that you can use in specific
locations--for example, indoors or outdoors, you can block groups of channels to
prevent the access point from selecting them when DFS is enabled. Use this
configuration interface command to block groups of channels from DFS
selection:
[no] dfs band [1] [2] [3] [4] block
