Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

In high-density wireless scenarios, too many Probe Response frames occupy a large number of wireless resources. To reduce wireless resource occupation of the frames and improve channel usage efficiency, you can run the deny-broadcast-probe enable command to configure an AP not to respond to broadcast Probe Request frames.

Precautions

Configuring an AP not to respond to broadcast Probe Request frames may reduce channel scan efficiency of some STAs.
