coverage hole. In such a situation, the other access points increase their transmit power.

WLAN healing is configured per security profile group and is active among access points that

share a common security configuration.

You can configure centralized RF management for the basic profile group on the basic RF

Management screen. If you use advanced profile groups, you can use the advanced RF

Management screen to customize settings for each advanced profile group.

WLAN Healing Concepts

The wireless controller has the capacity for automatic WLAN healing through the following

features:

• Automatic channel allocation. Enables the wireless controller to distribute an access

point channel automatically across the access points on a floor to reduce interference.

Automatic channel allocation considers interference and the traffic load on the access

point, as well as the wireless mode and bandwidth (also referred to as channel width) to

provide the best channel for the access point. For information about how to configure

automatic channel allocation, including the option to skip automatic channel allocation

during a heavy traffic load or voice activity, see Configure Channels on page 177.

• Automatic transmission power. Automatically determines the optimum transmit power

of an access point based on the coverage requirement. The access point scans its

neighborhood to determine the RF environment to minimize neighboring access point

interference, leakage across floors, and coverage holes.

When you configure WLAN healing, NETGEAR recommends the following:

• Configure the WLAN self-healing wait time to a value greater than the access point

reboot time, which is usually one minute. Set an appropriate wait time to allow for

fluctuations in the power of nearby access points when access points are rebooted.

• The number of neighbors to participate in WLAN self-healing should not be large (three to

four usually suffices in most deployments). Keep the number of participants low to

prevent too many access points from increasing power for a single failed access point.

Configure Radio Frequency Management for the Basic Profile

Group

You can configure the wireless transmission power, WLAN healing, and wireless coverage

hole detection for the basic profile group.

 To configure RF management for access points in the basic profile group:

1. Open a web browser. In the browser’s address field, type the http:// followed by the IP

address that you assigned to the wireless controller.

By default, the IP address is 192.168.0.250. If you have not yet assigned another IP

address to the wireless controller, type http://192.168.0.250.

The wireless controller’s login screen displays.
