Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

The device attempts to use the 802.11v and deauthentication modes to trigger STA steering to the target AP. Due to differences of STAs, some STAs can be successfully steered in deauthentication mode after multiple attempts. You can run the deauth-fail-times command to set the maximum number of attempts to steer STAs in deauthentication mode. If the number of attempts exceeds the specified value, STAs cannot be steered.

Precautions

You are advised to retain the default value. If the success rate of STA steering in deauthentication mode is low or STA services are affected, set the parameter value to 0 to disable STA steering in deauthentication mode.
