RF Domain Overrides

1. Select Devices from the Configuration tab.
   The Device Configuration screen displays a list of managed devices or peer controllers, service platforms or access points.
2. Expand the RF Domain Overrides menu option to display its sub-menu options.
3. Select RF Domain Overrides.
   

   Note

   A blue override icon (to the left of a parameter) defines the parameter as having an override applied. To remove an override go to the Basic Configuration section of the device and click Clear Overrides. This removes all overrides from the device.
4. Refer to the Basic Configuration field to review the basic settings defined for the target device's RF Domain configuration, and optionally assign or remove overrides to and from specific parameters.

   Location	Set the deployment location for the access point as part of its RF Domain configuration.
   Contact	Set the administrative contact for the access point. This should reflect the administrator responsible for the access point‘s configuration and wireless network.
   Time Zone	Use the drop-down menu to select the geographic time zone supporting its deployment location.
   Country Code	Use the drop-down menu to select the country code supporting its deployment location.

5. Refer to the Smart Scan field to review the settings defined for SMART RF.
   Optionally, assign or remove overrides to and from specific parameters.

   Enable Dynamic Channel	Select this option to enable dynamic channel scan.
   2.4 GHz Channels	Use the Select drop-down menu to select channels to scan in the 2.4 GHz band. Selected channels are highlighted with a gray background. Unselected channels are highlighted with a white background. Multiple channels can be selected at the same time.
   5 GHz Channels	Use the Select drop-down menu to select channels to scan in the 5.0 GHz band. Selected channels are highlighted with a gray background. Unselected channels are highlighted with a white background. Multiple channels can be selected at the same time.

6. Refer to the Client Name table to view the clients connected to RF Domain member access points adopted by networked controllers or service platforms.
   Use the table to associate administrator assigned client names to specific connected client MAC addresses for improved client management.

   In the MAC Address field, enter the client‘s factory coded MAC address.

   In the Name field, assign a name to the RF Domain member access point‘s connected client to assist in its easy recognition.

7. Use the Licenses drop-down menu to obtain and leverage feature licenses from RF Domain member devices.
8. Use the Sensor Policy drop-down menu to select a sensor policy for sending RSSI information to a dedicated MPact system for device locating calculations.
   Different policies can be created either with a default set of scanned channels or with custom channels, widths, and weighted scan priorities. Specific channels can also be isolated and locked for specific channel scans.

   

   Note

   If a dedicated sensor is utilized with WIPS for rogue detection, any sensor policy selected from the Sensor Policy drop-down menu is discarded and not utilized by the sensor. To avoid this situation, use ADSP channel settings exclusively to configure the sensor and not the WiNG interface.

   Click the Create icon to create a new sensor policy to apply to this RF Domain, or click the Edit icon to update the configuration of an existing policy before applying it to the RF Domain. For more information, see Sensor Policy.

9. Within an MPact Appliance architecture, sensors scan for RSSI data on an administrator defined interval and send to a dedicated MPact Server resource, as opposed to an ADSP server.
   Click + Add Row to populate the screen with up to three rows for MPact server credentials.

   Server id	Assign a numeric ID for up to three MPact servers designated to receive RSSI scan data from a WiNG dedicated server. The server with the lowest defined ID is the first reached. The default ID is 1.
   IP Address/Hostname	Provide the numeric (non DNS) IP addresses or hostnames of up to three MPact server resources for receiving RSSI scan data. A hostname cannot exceed 64 characters or contain an underscore.
   Port	Specify the port of the MPact sensor server resource receiving RSSI scan data from a dedicated sensor. The default port is 443.

10. For an ADSP Appliance sensor architecture, click + Add Row to populate the screen with up to three rows for ADSP server credentials:

    Server id	Assign a numeric ID for up to three ADSP servers designated to receive RSSI scan data from a WiNG dedicated server. The server with the lowest defined ID is the first reached. The default ID is 1.
    IP Address/Hostname	Provide the numeric (non DNS) IP addresses or hostnames of up to three ADSP server resources for receiving RSSI scan data. A hostname cannot exceed 64 characters or contain an underscore.
    Port	Specify the port of the ADSP sensor server resource receiving RSSI scan data from a dedicated sensor. The default port is 443.

11. Click OK to save the changes and overrides made to the RF Domain configuration.
    Click Reset to revert to the last saved configuration.
