Configures a radio‘s channel of operation

Only a trained installation professional should define the radio channel. Select Smart for the radio to scan non-overlapping channels listening for beacons from other access points. After the channels are scanned, the radio selects the channel with the fewest access points. In case of multiple access points on the same channel, it selects the channel with the lowest average power level.

Note

Note

Channels with a “w” appended to them are unique to the 40 MHz band. Channels with a “ww” appended to them are 802.11ac specific, and appear only when using an and are unique to the 80 MHz band.

Supported in the following platforms:

  • Access Points — AP505i, AP510i, AP510e, AP560i, AP560h

Syntax

channel [smart|acs|random|ml-rrm|1|2|3|4|---------128www]

Parameters

channel [smart|acs|random|1|2|3|4|---------128www ]
channel Configures a radio‘s channel of operation
[smart|acs|random||1|2|3|4|------ 128www] Configures the radio‘s channel of operation, using one of the following options:
  • smart – Enables Smart RF the channel assignment for the selected radio (uses uniform spectrum spreading if Smart RF is not enabled). This is the default setting.
  • acs – Uses automatic channel selection (ACS) to assign a channel
  • random – Randomly assigns a channel
  • ml-rrm - Enables ml-rrm (Machine Learning - Radio Resource Management) to determine the channel assignment for the selected radio.

    The ML-RRM option provides an alternative solution to Smart RF management of radio settings, such as channel selection and transmit power. To use ML-RRM, you must first enable the ml-rrm agent in the access point's profile or device context.

    Note: ML-RRM can be enabled only on the WiNG AP7632 and AP7662 model access points and only if the APs are adopted to ExtremeCloud.
    Note: ExtremeAI can be enabled on the access point through the ExtremeCloud UI. For more information on ExtremeAI, please refer to the ExtremeAI User Guide available at https://extremenetworks.com/documentation.

  • 1 – Sets channel 1 in 20 MHz mode as the selected radio's channel of operation
  • 2 – Sets channel 2 in 20 MHz mode as the selected radio's channel of operation
  • 3 – Sets channel 3 in 20 MHz mode as the selected radio's channel of operation
