Configuring WLANS
v1.0, June 2007
The AP response time to noise is quick and reliable, even to non-802.11 noise, especially 
when client traffic starts generating errors due to the noise.
Non-802.11 noise detection is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled.
The IRM algorithm is based on what the AP hears, which means that the system can 
compensate for scenarios like broken antennas or blocked signal coverage on neighboring 
APs.
Since channel decisions are based on the information the AP receives from the RF 
environment, interference due to third-party APs is taken into account.
Configuring IRM
1. Enable IRM for each AP and for the 802.11b/g radio.
To enable IRM under the global setting, navigate to Configuration > Advanced > WLAN 
> Radio.
To enable IRM for individual APs, navigate to Configuration > Advanced > WLAN > 
Advanced.
To enable IRM on the 802.11b/g radio, navigate to the Configuration > Advanced > 
WLAN > Radio page (
