DFS (802.11h)
In the DFS (802.11h) configuration, channel announcement and quiet mode should be enabled.
Power Constraint should be left un-configured or set to 0 dB as DTPC will be used by the Cisco DX Series to control the
transmission power.
In later versions of the Cisco Unified Wireless LAN Controller it does not allow both TPC (Power Constraint) and DTPC
(Dynamic Transmit Power Control) to be enabled simultaneously.

High Throughput (802.11n)
The 802.11n data rates can be configured per radio (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz).
Ensure that WMM is enabled and WPA2(AES) is configured in order to utilize 802.11n data rates.
The Cisco DX Series supports MCS 0 - MCS 7 data rates only, but higher MCS rates can optionally be enabled if there are
other 802.11n clients utilizing the same band frequency that include MIMO antenna technology, which can take advantage of
the those higher data rates.
It is recommended to disable MCS 0.
