custom-scan

Configures the channel scanning settings when the scan-mode is set to custom-scan
Note

Note

If the mode of scanning is set to Custom-Scan, use this command to configure the channels to be scanned. To set the mode of scanning to custom-scan, use the scan-mode > Custom-Scan command. For more information, see scan-mode.

Supported in the following platforms:

  • Service Platforms — NX 75XX, NX 95XX, NX 96XX, VX 9000

Syntax

custom-scan channel-frequency <CHANNEL-FREQUENCY> width 
[20MHz|40MHz-Bth|40MHz-Lower|40MHz-Upper|80MHz] scan-weight <SCAN-WEIGHT>

Parameters

custom-scan channel-frequency <CHANNEL-FREQUENCY> width 
[20MHz|40MHz-Bth|40MHz-Lower|40MHz-Upper|80MHz] scan-weight <SCAN-WEIGHT>
custom-scan Configures the custom-scan channel frequency, channel width, and scan weight
channel-frequency <CHANNEL-FREQUENCY> Configures the channel frequency. A list of unique channels in the 2.4, 4.9, 5 and 6 GHz band can be collectively or individually enabled for customized channel scans and RSSI reporting.
  • <CHANNEL-FREQUENCY> – Specify a single or multiple, ‘comma-separated‘ channel frequencies.
width [20MHz| 40MHz-Both| 40MHz-Lower| 40MHz-Upper| 80MHz] Configures the channel width. When custom channels are selected for RSSI scans, each selected channel can have its own width defined. Numerous channels have their width fixed at 20MHz, 802.11a radios support 20 and 40 MHz channel widths.
  • 20MHz – Sets the channel width as 20 Mhz
  • 40Mhz-Both – Sets the channel width as 40Mhz-Both
  • 40Mhz-Lowe – Sets the channel width as 40Mhz-Lower
  • 40Mhz-Upper – Sets the channel width as 40Mhz-Upper
  • 80Mhz – Sets the channel width as 80Mhz
scan-weight <SCAN-WEIGHT> Configures the scan-weight (scanning duration) for each of the selected channels. Each selected channel can have its weight prioritized in respect to the amount of time a scan is permitted within the defined RSSI scan interval.
  • <SCAN-WEIGHT> – Specify the scan weightage given to each selected channel.
