Configure Smart RF Basic Settings

1. Select the Activate SMART RF Policy check box to enable the parameters on the screen for configuration.
   The configuration cannot be applied to the access point profile unless this setting is selected and remains enabled.

2. Refer to the Basic Settings field to enable a Smart RF policy and define its sensitivity and detector status.

   Sensitivity	Select a radio button corresponding to the desired Smart RF sensitivity. The options include , Medium, High, and Custom. Medium is the default setting. The Custom option allows an administrator to adjust the parameters and thresholds for Interference Recovery, Coverage Hole Recovery, and Neighbor Recovery. Using the Low, Medium (recommended), and High settings still allows these features to be utilized.
   Smart RF Policy Enable	Select this option to enable Smart RF for immediate inclusion within an RF Domain. Smart RF is enabled by default.
   Interference Recovery	Select this option to enable compensations from neighboring radios when radio interference is detected. When interference is detected, Smart RF first determines the power increase needed based on the signal to noise ratio for a client (as seen by the access point radio). If a client‘s signal to noise value is above the threshold, the transmit power is increased until the signal to noise rate falls below the threshold. This option is enabled by default.
   Coverage Hole Recovery	Select this option to enable coverage compensation from neighboring radios when a radio coverage hole is detected within the Smart RF supported radio coverage area. When a coverage hole is detected, Smart RF first determines the power increase needed based on the signal-to-noise ratio for a client as seen by the access point radio. If a client‘s signal-to-noise value is above the threshold, the transmit power is increased until the signal-to-noise rate falls below the threshold. This option is enabled by default.
   Neighbor Recovery	Select this option to enable Neighbor Recovery when a failed radio is detected within the Smart RF supported radio coverage area. Smart RF can provide automatic recovery by instructing neighboring APs to increase their transmit power to compensate for the coverage loss. Neighbor Recovery is enabled by default when the sensitivity setting is Medium.

3. Refer to the Calibration Assignment field to define whether Smart RF Calibration and radio grouping is conducted by area or floor.
   Both options are disabled by default.
4. Click OK to update the Smart RF basic settings for this policy.
   Click Reset to revert to the last saved configuration.
