radio-resource-measurement

Enables support for 802.11k radio resource measurement capabilities (IEEE 802.11k) on this WLAN. 802.11k improves how traffic is distributed. In a WLAN, devices normally connect to the access point with the strongest signal. Depending on the number and location of clients, this arrangement can lead to excessive demand on one access point and under utilization of others, resulting in degradation of overall network performance. With 802.11k, if the access point with the strongest signal is loaded to its capacity, a client connects to an under-utilized access point. Even if the signal is weaker, the overall throughput is greater since it's an efficient use of the network's resources. This feature is disabled by default.

Supported in the following platforms:
