Use the force-disassociate command to enable or disable force disassociate on an AP radio. The force-disassociate command is accessible from all default contexts: and from ap <serial> radio contexts when probe-suppression is enabled.
| disable | enable | Enables or disables force disassociate for this radio context. |
Probe-suppression is useful in dense deployments (such as stadiums) where a large number of APs may be operating in close proximity. It permits the administrator to configure smaller cells. Thus clients only attempt to associate with the AP that is closest and has the strongest signal. This removes much of the overhead, permitting better performance of the network.
If force-disassociate is enabled, clients who move away from their AP, from one cell to another, find it easier to roam to a new AP.
The following example enables force disassociate on radio 1 of AP 1111111111113705:
