bss-color disable

Function

The bss-color disable command disables the basic service set (BSS) coloring function.

The undo bss-color disable command enables the BSS coloring function.

By default, the BSS coloring function is enabled.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

In high-density scenarios, the 802.11ax protocol proposes the BSS coloring mechanism to improve system performance and channel usage efficiency. When detecting 802.11ax signals, STAs can identify the signals from the overlapping basic service set (OBSS) based on the BSS color bit or MAC address, and then determine air interface conflicts and perform interference management according to related information. The BSS coloring function enables a device to distinguish between the transmissions on the local and neighboring networks. Then, it can adaptively adjust the power and the sensitivity threshold to allow dynamic adjustment of the transmit power and the signal detection threshold to increase spatial reuse efficiency and minimize co-channel interference.

Precautions

Disabling the BSS coloring function will automatically disable the spatial reuse (SR) function.

This function takes effect only for AirEngine Wi-Fi 6 APs (except the AirEngine 5760-10).

Example

# Disable the BSS coloring function.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] wlan
[HUAWEI-wlan-view] rrm-profile name default
[HUAWEI-wlan-rrm-prof-default] bss-color disable
Warning: The spatial reuse function will become invalid when BSS color function is disable. Continue? [Y/N]y
