5-20 Configuring WLANS
v1.0, June 2007
• The AP response time to noise is quick and reliable, even to non-802.11 noise, especially
when client traffic starts generating errors due to the noise.
• Non-802.11 noise detection is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled.
• The IRM algorithm is based on what the AP hears, which means that the system can
compensate for scenarios like broken antennas or blocked signal coverage on neighboring
APs.
• Since channel decisions are based on the information the AP receives from the RF
environment, interference due to third-party APs is taken into account.
Configuring IRM
1. Enable IRM for each AP and for the 802.11b/g radio.
• To enable IRM under the global setting, navigate to Configuration > Advanced > WLAN
> Radio.
• To enable IRM for individual APs, navigate to Configuration > Advanced > WLAN >
Advanced.
• To enable IRM on the 802.11b/g radio, navigate to the Configuration > Advanced >
WLAN > Radio page (Figure 5-9).
