Item Description
5GHz Excluded
Channel/2.4GHz Excluded
Channel
To avoid selecting improper channels, you can exclude specific channels from
automatic channel selection. The excluded channels will not be available for
initial automatic channel selection, DFS, and mesh DFS. This feature does not
affect rogue detection and WIDS.
Select a channel and add it to the 5GHz Excluded Channel or 2.4GHz
Excluded Channel.
By default, no channels exist in the 5GHz Excluded Channel or 2.4GHz
Excluded Channel.
IMPORTANT:
• The channel exclusion list is not restricted by the country code. You can add
channels not supported by the country code to the list, and changing the
country code does not change the channel list. The device will select an
available channel from the channels supported by the country code and not
in the channel exclusion list. When you configure this feature, do not add all
channels supported by the country code to the channel exclusion list.
• This feature takes effect only for initial automatic channel selection, DFS,
and mesh DFS.
• If you add an automatically selected channel into the channel exclusion list,
the AC disables the radio, enables the radio, and then selects an available
channel from the channels supported by the country code and not in the
channel exclusion list.
If you add an automatically selected primary channel to the channel exclusion
list, the AC selects another available primary channel. If you add a secondary
channel into the channel exclusion list in this case, the AC selects another
secondary channel. If the AP cannot find an available secondary channel, no
channels are available for the wireless, mesh, and WDS services.
