Self Monitoring At Run Time (SMART) RF Management is designed to simplify RF configurations for new deployments, while optimizing radio performance.
An RF policy can reduce deployment costs by scanning the RF environment to determine the best channel and transmit power configuration for each radio, allowing APs to respond dynamically to changing RF conditions. Apply RF Management policies to specific RF Domains.
After gathering information from the RF environment, RF Management makes intelligent configuration choices. It monitors the network for external interference, neighbor interference, non-Wi-Fi interference, and client connectivity. It then intelligently applies algorithms determining optimal channel and power selection for all APs in the network and constantly reacts to changes in the RF environment.
Real-time network monitoring allows RF Management to provide self-healing functions, providing automatic mitigation from potentially problematic events such as radio interference, non-Wi-Fi interference (noise), external Wi-Fi interference, coverage holes, and radio failures. Self-healing is used to enable a WLAN to better maintain wireless client performance and site coverage during dynamic RF environment changes, which would otherwise require manual reconfiguration to resolve.
This value depends on the RF Sensitivity setting on the Basic tab.
