Table 18 describes the Channel Plan History fields
Initiating Manual Channel Plan Assignments
If you specify Manual as the Channel Plan Mode on the Configuration tab, The Manual
Channel Plan page allows you to initiate the Channel Plan algorithm.
To manually run the channel plan adjustment feature, select the radio to update the channels
on (802.11a or 802.11g) and click the Start button.
Figure 50. Manual Channel Plan
Table 18. Channel Plan History
Field Description
802.11a
802.11g
The 802.11a and 802.11g radios use different channel plans, so the switch
tracks the channel history separately for each radio. The channel information
that displays on the page is only for the radio you select.
Operational Status This field shows whether the switch is using the automatic channel
adjustment algorithm on the D-Link Access Point radios.
Last Iteration The number in this field indicates the last iteration of channel plan
adjustments. The APs that received a channel adjustment in previous
iterations cannot be assigned new channels in the next iteration to prevent the
same APs from being changed time after time.
On the AP Management > RF Management > Configuration tab, you can
set the history depth to control the maximum number of iterations stored and
displayed in the channel plan history.
Last Algorithm
Time
Shows the date and time when the channel plan algorithm last ran.
NOTE: To set the system time on the switch, you must use SNTP, which is
disabled by default. From the Web interface, you configure the SNTP client
and server information from the LAN > Administration > SNTP Settings
page. From the CLI, use the
sntp commands in Global Config mode.
