7Clustering Multiple Access PointsConfiguring and Viewing Channel Management SettingsConfiguring and Viewing Channel Management SettingsWhen Channel Management is enabled, the access point automatically assignsradio channels used by clustered access points. The automatic channelassignment reduces mutual interference (or interference with other access pointsoutside of its cluster) and maximizes Wi-Fi bandwidth to help maintain theefficiency of communication over the wireless network.You must start channel management to get automatic channel assignments; it isdisabled by default on a new access point.At a specified interval, the Channel Manager maps access points to channel useand measures interference levels in the cluster. If significant channel interference isdetected, the Channel Manager automatically re-assigns some or all of the accesspoints to new channels per an efficiency algorithm (or automated channelplan).The Channel Management page shows previous, current, and planned channelassignments for clustered access points. By default, automatic channelassignment is disabled. You can start channel management to optimize channelusage across the cluster on a scheduled interval.To configure and view the channel assignments for the cluster members, click theChannel Management tab.145 Cisco AP 541N Dual-band Single-radio Access Point Quick Start Guide
Clustering Multiple Access PointsConfiguring and Viewing Channel Management Settings7Figure 35Channel ManagementFrom this page, you can view channel assignments for all access points in thecluster and stop or start automatic channel management. By using the Advancedsettings on the page, you can modify the interference reduction potential thattriggers channel re-assignment, change the schedule for automatic updates, andre-configure the channel set used for assignments.Stopping/Starting Automatic Channel AssignmentBy default, automatic channel assignment is disabled (off).NOTEChannel Management overrides the default cluster behavior, which is tosynchronize radio channels of all access points across a cluster. When ChannelManagement is enabled, the radio Channel is not synced across the cluster to otheraccess points.Cisco AP 541N Dual-band Single-radio Access Point Quick Start Guide 146
