The smart-roam roam-threshold { check-snr | check-rate } command configures the trigger mode of smart roaming.
The undo smart-roam roam-threshold command restores the default trigger mode of smart roaming.
By default, the trigger mode of smart roaming is check-snr.
Parameter |
Description |
Value |
---|---|---|
check-snr |
Specifies the trigger mode of smart roaming as check SNR. |
- |
check-rate |
Specifies the trigger mode of smart roaming as check rate. The rate here refers to the negotiated rate based on the protocol and signal strength when a STA associates with an AP, instead of the actual rate of the STA. |

Usage Scenario
After the smart roaming function is enabled, the AP forces STAs to log out based on the configured trigger mode and threshold of smart roaming. When an AP receives a STA's data packet, the AP learns the STA's SNR or rate from the data packet. If the STA's SNR or rate is lower than the configured threshold, smart roaming is triggered. Then, the AP sends a Disassociation frame to the STA so that the STA can reinitiate a connection with the AP or roam to another AP with strong signals.
Prerequisites
The smart roaming function has been enabled using the undo smart-roam disable command.
Follow-up Procedure
Run the smart-roam roam-threshold { snr | rate } command to configure the smart roaming threshold.
