Custom Parameter Option
The parameter value is displayed as “Custom” when the operating system registry has been edited to set the Summit
parameter to a value that is not available from the parameter’s drop down list. Selecting Custom from the drop down list
has no effect. Selecting any other value from the drop down list will overwrite the “custom” value in the registry.

Options are: -50 dBm, -55, -60, -65, -70, -75, -80, -85, -90 dBm or .
Roam Delta 5 dBm The amount by which a different Access Point signal strength must ex-
ceed the current Access Point signal strength before roaming to the dif-
ferent Access Point is attempted.
Options are: 5 dBm, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 dBm or Custom.
Roam Period 10 sec. The amount of time, after association or a roam scan with no roam, that
the radio collects Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) scan data
before a roaming decision is made.
Options are: 5 sec, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60 seconds or

BG Channel Set Full Defines the 2.4GHz channels to be scanned for an AP when the radio is
contemplating roaming. By specifying the channels to search, roaming
time may be reduced over scanning all channels.
Options are:
Full (all channels)
1,6,11 (the most commonly used channels)
1,7,13 (for ETSI and TELEC radios only)
or Custom.
DFS Channels Off Support for 5GHZ 802.11a channels where support for DFS is required.
Options are: On, Off, Optimized.
Not supported (always off) in some releases.
DFS Scan Time 120 ms. ABG radio only. The amount of time the radio will passively scan each
DFS channel to see if it will receive a beacon.
Recommended value is 1.5 times that of the AP's beacon period.
Ad Hoc Channel 1 Use this parameter when the Radio Mode profile parameter is set to Ad
Hoc.
Specifies the channel to be used for an Ad Hoc connection to another cli-
ent device. If a channel is selected that is not supported by the by the ra-
