The WiNG 7.x.x OS supports the new, ExtremeMobility, 802.11ax AP3xx, AP4xx and AP5xx model access points. Refer to the following for radio and antenna details:
To define an access point radio configuration from an associated peer access point controller AP, controller or NX service platform:
Select from the web UI.
A list of device profiles is displayed in the right-hand UI. This list contains default and user-defined profiles.
Select a profile from those listed on the screen.
The profile's configuration menu is displayed.
Review the following to determine whether a radio configuration requires modification to better support the managed network:
| Name | Displays whether the reporting radio is the access point's radio1, radio2 or radio3. |
| Type | Displays the type of radio housed by each listed access point. |
| Description | Displays a brief description of the radio provided by the administrator when the radio's configuration was added or modified. |
| Admin Status | A green checkmark defines the listed radio as active and enabled with its supported profile. A red "X" defines the radio as currently disabled. |
| RF Mode | Displays whether each listed radio is operating in the 802.11a/n or 802.11b/g/n radio band. If the radio is a dedicated sensor, it will be listed as a sensor to define the radio as not providing typical WLAN support. If the radio is a client-bridge, it provides a typical bridging function and does not provide WLAN support. The radio band is set from within the Radio Settings tab. |
| Channel | Lists the channel setting for the radio. Smart is the default setting. If set to smart, the access point scans non-overlapping channels listening for beacons from other access points. After the channels are scanned, it selects the channel with the fewest access points. In the case of multiple access points on the same channel, it selects the channel with the lowest average power level. |
| Transmit Power | Lists the transmit power for each radio displayed as a value in milliwatts. |
