Usage guidelines
Perform this task to set the antenna type for the AP. The antenna type setting for the AP must be
consistent with the type of the antenna used on theAP.
To ensure that the Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) is within the correct range, the antenna
gain automatically changes after you set the antenna type.
Examples
# Set the antenna type to external.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface wlan-radio 0/0
[Sysname-WLAN-Radio0/0] type dot11an
[Sysname-WLAN-Radio0/0] antenna type external

Views
Radio interface view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
channel-number: Specifies a channel by its number. The value range for this argument varies by
country code and radio mode.
auto: Configures the AP to automatically select a channel.
Usage guidelines
When radar signals are detected on the working channel of a radio, the AP changes its channel, and
switches back to the specified channel after 30 minutes. Then the AP starts the quiet timer. If no
radar signals are detected within the quiet time, theAP starts to use the channel. If radar signals are
detected within the quiet time, theAP changes its channel.
Examples
# Specify channel 6 as the working channel.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface wlan-radio 0/1
[Sysname-WLAN-Radio0/1] channel 6
channel band-width
Use channel band-width to set the bandwidth mode.
Use undo channel band-width to restore the default.
Syntax
channel band-width { 20 | 40 }
undo channel band-width
Default
The bandwidth mode is 80 MHz for 802.11ac radios, 40 MHz for 802.11an radios, and 20 MHz for
802.11gn radios.
Views
Radio interface view
Predefined user roles

5
Parameters
20: Sets the bandwidth mode to 20 MHz.
40: Sets the bandwidth mode to 40 MHz.
Usage guidelines
This command is applicable only to 802.11n radios. When you change the mode of a radio, the
default setting of this command for the new radio mode is restored.
If the current channel of a radio does not support the specified bandwidth mode, the radio clears the
channel configuration and selects another channel.
If the bandwidth mode is set to 40 MHz, the radio uses the 40 MHz bandwidth if two adjacent
channels that can be bound together exist. If there are no adjacent channels that can be bound
together, the radio uses the 20 MHz bandwidth.
Examples
# Set the bandwidth mode to 40 MHz.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface wlan-radio 0/0
[Sysname-WLAN-Radio0/0] channel band-width 40
client dot11b-forbidden
Use client dot11b-forbidden enable to disable access services for 802.11b clients.
Use client dot11b-forbidden disable to enable access services for 802.11b clients.
Use undo client dot11b-forbidden to restore the default.
Syntax
client dot11b-forbidden { disable | enable }
undo client dot11b-forbidden
Default
Access services for 802.11b clients are enabled.
Views
Radio interface view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Usage guidelines
Enabling an 802.11g or 802.11gn radio to reject 802.11b clients reduces the impact of low-speed
802.11b clients and speeds up wireless data transmission.
Examples
# Configure WLAN-radio 1/0/2 to reject 802.11b clients.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface wlan-radio 0/1
[Sysname-wlan-radio-0/1] client dot11b-forbidden enable
client dot11n-only
Use client dot11n-only enable to enable the client dot11n-only feature.

6
Use client dot11n-only disable to disable the client dot11n-only feature.
Use undo client dot11n-only to restore the default.
Syntax
client dot11n-only { disable | enable }
undo client dot11n-only
Default
The client dot11n-only feature is disabled.

network-admin
Usage guidelines
This command is applicable only to 802.11n radios. Changing theradio mode to 802.11a, 802.11b, or
802.11g invalidates the command.
After you configure this command on a radio, the radio accepts only the 802.11n clients, and all
802.11a/b/g clients that are associated with the radio are logged off.
Examples
# Enable the client dot11n-only feature.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface wlan-radio 0/0
[Sysname-WLAN-Radio0/0] client dot11n-only enable

Usage guidelines
This command is applicable only when an AP uses a third-party antenna.
Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) is the actual transmit power of an antenna, and it is the
sum of the antenna gain and the maximum transmit power of the radio. If the configured antenna
gain causes the EIRP to exceed the threshold, the antenna gain configuration fails.
Make sure the antenna gain setting is the same as the gain of the antenna used on theAP.
Changing the radio mode automatically changes the antenna gain.
Examples
# Set the antenna gain to 2 dBi.

Usage guidelines
This command is applicable only to 802.11g and 802.11n (2.4 GHz) radios. If you change the mode
of a radio to a mode other than 802.11g or 802.11n (2.4 GHz), 802.11g protection configuration is
removed.
802.11g or 802.11n devices send RTS/CTS or CTS-to-self packets before sending data only when
802.11b signals are detected on the channel.
802.11g protection automatically takes effect when 802.11b clients associate with an 802.11g or
802.11n (2.4 GHz) AP.
Examples
# Enable 802.11g protection.

Parameters
index: Specifies the maximum mandatory MCS index in the range of 0 to 76.
Usage guidelines
This command is applicable only to 802.11n radios. Changing theradio mode to 802.11a, 802.11b, or
802.11g invalidates the command.
Before configuring the dot11n multicast-mcs command, you must set the maximum mandatory
MCS index.
After you modify the maximum mandatory MCS index, clients that are associated with the radio and
that do not support the modified MCS index will go offline.
Examples
# Set the maximum mandatory MCS index to 14.

Parameters
index: Specifies the multicast MCS index in the range of 0 to 76.
Usage guidelines
This command is applicable only to 802.11n radios. Changing theradio mode to 802.11a, 802.11b, or
802.11g invalidates the command.
The multicast MCS index takes effect only when the radio associates only with 802.11n clients.
If non-802.11n clients exist, the AP and clients use the 802.11a/b/g multicast rate to multicast
packets.
The multicast MCS index maps to a rate in 20 MHz bandwidth mode regardless of whether the
bandwidth mode is 20 MHz or 40 MHz.

Parameters
counter: Specifies the DTIM interval in the range of 1 to 31.
Usage guidelines
An AP periodically broadcasts a beacon compliant with the DTIM. After the AP broadcasts the
beacon, it sends buffered broadcast and multicast frames based on the value of the DTIM interval.
For example, if you set the DTIM intervalto 5, the APsends buffered broadcast and multicast frames
every five beacon frames.
Examples
# Set the DTIM interval to 5.

Parameters
size: Specifies the fragmentation threshold in the range of 256 to 2346 bytes. The value for this
argument must be an even number.
Usage guidelines
Frames larger than the fragmentation threshold are fragmented before transmission. Frames smaller
than the fragmentation threshold are transmitted without fragmentation.
In a WLAN with great interference, decrease the fragmentation threshold to improve the network
throughput and efficiency

Parameters
count: Specifies the maximum number of hardware retransmissions for large frames, in the range of
1 to 15.
Usage guidelines
Large frames are frames larger than the RTS threshold. If a radio fails to transmit a packet when the
maximum number of hardware retransmissions is reached, the APselects another transmission rate
for the packet. The radio uses the new rate to transmit the packet again.
Examples
# Set the maximum number of hardware retransmissions to 5 for large frames.

Parameters
radio-power: Specifies the maximum transmit power.
Usage guidelines
The transmit power range supported by a radio varies by country code, channel, AP model, radio
mode, antenna type, and bandwidth mode. If you change these attributes for a radio after you set the
maximum transmit power, the configured maximum transmit power might be out of the supported
transmit power range. If this happens, the systemautomatically adjusts the maximum transmit power
to a valid value.
If you enable power lock, the locked power becomes the maximum transmit power.
Examples
# Set the maximum transmit power to 15 dBm.
