Monitoring the Network with ARM

When ARM is enabled, an IAP dynamically scans all 802.11 channels within its 802.11 regulatory domain at

regular intervals and provides reports for network (WLAN) coverage, interference, and intrusion detection, to a

virtual controller.

ARM Metrics

ARM computes coverage and interference metrics for each valid channel and chooses the best performing

channel and transmit power settings for each IAP RF environment. Each IAP gathers other metrics on their

ARM-assigned channel to provide a snapshot of the current RF health state.

Configuring Administrator Assigned Radio Settings for IAP

ARM is enabled on Dell Instant by default. It automatically assigns appropriate channel and power for the IAPs.

To manually configure radio settings using the Instant UI, perform the following steps:

1. In the Access Points tab, click the AP for which you want to enable ARM. The edit link appears.

2. Click the edit link. The Edit AP box appears.

3. Click the Radio tab.
