Web: Configuring AP Detection

To configure access point detection, use the Settings window on the AP

Detection tab.

The web interface enables you to modify these parameters:

■ Disable: There are no AP detection scans, either dedicated, periodic, or

instant. (This is the default setting.)

■ Dedicated: The access point continuously scans all channels to find

details of neighbor access points. In this mode, no clients can asscociate

with the access point.

■ Periodic: The access point performs periodic scanning for other access

points based on the following configured parameters:

• Scan Interval: Sets the time between each AP detection scan.

(Range: 15 -10080 minutes; Default: 720 minutes)

• Scan Duration: Sets the length of time for each AP detection scan.

A long scan duration time will detect more access points in the area,

but causes more disruption to client access. (Range: 50 -1000 millisec-

onds; Default: 350 milliseconds)

• Time Until First Scan: The time delay from enabling AP detection

or a reboot before scanning starts. (Range: 0 -10080 minutes; Default:

0 minutes)

• Time Since Last Scan: The elapsed time since the previous AP

detection scan.

■ Instant Scan: Click the [Start] button to perform an immediate AP scan

on the radio interface. Note that Instant Scan does not work when AP

Detection is disabled.

No t e While the access point scans a channel for neighbor APs, wireless clients will

not be able to connect to the access point. Therefore, frequent scanning or

scans of a long duration will degrade the access point’s performance. If more

extensive scanning is required, use the dedicated scanning mode.

To Configure Periodic AP Detection:

1. Select the AP Detection tab.

2. Click the [

Settings] button.

3. Select Periodic and specify the required scan interval and duration.
