aggressiveness
Configures a roaming aggressiveness value for wireless clients.
Configuring this value increases the client‘s roaming capabilities in scenarios where the
client‘s location is likely to change drastically and suddenly. For example, when a client
hops on to a train that speeds up quickly. In such a scenario, the access point receives a
maximum of 2 (two) messages, from the client, having relatively low RSSI value. This results
in a decaying-average, which is above the specified handover-threshold value. Consequently,
the client is unable to roam.
Supported on the following devices:
- Access Points: AP5010, AP310i/e, AP410i/e, AP505i, AP510i, AP510e, AP560i, AP6522, AP6562, AP7161, AP7502,
AP7522, AP7532, AP7562, AP7602, AP7612, AP7622, AP763, AP7662, AP8163, AP8543,
AP8533.
- Service Platforms:
NX5500, NX7500, NX9500, NX9600
- Virtual Platforms: CX9000, VX9000

Configures a roaming aggressiveness value for wireless
clients. The options are:
- highest – De-authenticates client in case of any degradation in the client‘s
link quality. When selected, the access point considers only the RSSI value of
the last message received from the client.
- lowest – De-authenticates client only in case of significant degradation in
the client‘s link quality. When selected, the access point uses a weighted
average [80% of decaying average + 20% of last seen RSSI] as the final reported
RSSI value. This is the default setting.
- medium – This is an intermediate setting between not roaming and
performance.
- medium-high – Allows roaming even if performance goes down. When selected, the
access point calculates the client‘s signal strength based on average received
signal as well as last received signal level, weighted towards the last received
value.
- medium-low – Allows roaming even if performance goes average. When selected,
the access point calculates the client‘s signal strength based on average
received signal as well as last received signal level, weighted towards the
average value.
