calibrate policy

Function

The calibrate policy command creates a radio calibration policy.

The undo calibrate policy command deletes a radio calibration policy.

By default, no radio calibration policy is created.

Format

calibrate policy { rogue-ap | non-wifi | noise-floor }

undo calibrate policy { rogue-ap | non-wifi | noise-floor }

Parameters

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

Radio calibration policies are classified into:

The noise floor, rogue AP and non-Wi-Fi policies take effect only in automatic radio calibration mode.

The non-Wi-Fi policy is only supported by APs that support spectrum analysis.

Rogue AP policy: When rogue APs (out of control by an AC) exist on a network, set the radio calibration policy to rogue-ap. The device then immediately takes actions to avoid interference. This policy may lead to frequency channel switchovers. You are advised to use this policy under the instruction of technical support personnel.
Non-Wi-Fi policy: When non-Wi-Fi interference occurs on a network, the device immediately takes actions to avoid interference.
Noise floor policy: When the noise floor of APs is high due to special external interference, service experience may deteriorate. With this radio calibration policy, the device takes actions to avoid interference. When detecting that the noise floor of the current channel exceeds the threshold for three consecutive times, an AP notifies the AC of the high noise floor. The AC then allocates another channel to the AP and does not allocate the current channel to the AP in 30 minutes.

Radio calibration triggers channel changes. Some STAs may go offline and then go online again. If these STAs exist on the network, to ensure service experience, you are advised to perform radio calibration when no service is running and disable policies that frequently trigger radio calibration. You can run the display channel switch-record calibrate command to check policies that frequently trigger radio calibration.

The three radio calibration policies can be used together. You can run the command multiple times to configure different radio calibration policies according to service requirements.

Prerequisites

The noise floor threshold for triggering radio calibration has been specified using the calibrate noise-floor-threshold threshold command.
