off-channel-scan
interface-config-radio-instance
Enables off-channel scanning on
this radio. This option is disabled by default.
Channel scanning uses the access point‘s resources and is time consuming. Therefore, enable this option only if the radio has the bandwidth to support channel scan without negatively impacting client support.
Supported in the
following platforms:
- Access Points — AP3000/X, AP5010, AP310i/e, AP410i/e,
AP460i/e, AP505i, AP510i/e, AP560i/h, AP7612, AP7632, AP7662,
AP8533

Parameters
off-channel-scan {channel-list [2.4Ghz|5Ghz]} {<CHANNEL-LIST>}
| off-channel-scan |
Enables
off-channel scanning and configures related parameters. These parameters are
optional, and the system configures default settings if no values are
specified. |
| channel-list
[2.4GHz|5GHz] |
Optional.
Selects the 2.4GHz or 5GHz access point radio band. Restricting off channel
scans to specific channels frees bandwidth otherwise utilized for scanning
across all channels.
- 2.4GHz – Selects the 2.4
GHz band
- 5GHz – Selects the 5.0 GHz
band
|
| <CHANNEL-LIST> |
Optional.
Specifies a list of 20 MHz, 40 MHz, or 80 MHz channels for the selected band
(the channels are separated by commas or hyphens) |
off-channel-scan {max-multicast <0-100>|scan-interval <2-100>}
| off-channel-scan |
Enables
off-channel scanning and configures related parameters. These parameters are
optional, and the system configures default settings if no values are
specified. |
| max-multicast
<0-100> |
Optional.
Configures the maximum multicast/broadcast messages used to perform OCS
- <0-100> – Specify a
value from 0 - 100. The default is 4.
|
| scan-interval
<2-100> |
Optional.
Configures the scan interval in dtims
- <2-100> – Specify a
value from 2 - 100. The default is 20 dtims.
|
off-channel-scan {sniffer-redirect tzsp <IP>}
| off-channel-scan |
Enables
off-channel scanning and configures related parameters. These parameters are
optional, and the system configures default settings if no values are
specified. |
| sniffer-redirect
tzsp <IP> |
Optional.
Captures and redirects packets to a host running a packet capture/analysis
tool. Use this command to configure the IP address of the host.
- tzsp – Encapsulates
captured packets in TZSP before redirecting to the specified host
- <IP> – Specify
the destination device IP address.
