channel management (enabled or disabled) is propagated to the other devices in
the Single Point Setup cluster.
At a specified interval, the channel manager (that is, the device that provided the
configuration to the cluster) maps all clustered WAP devices to different channels
and measures interference levels of the cluster members. If significant channel
interference is detected, the channel manager automatically reassigns some or all
of the devices to new channels per an efficiency algorithm (or automated channel
plan). If the channel manager determines that a change is necessary, then the
reassignment information is sent to all members of the cluster. A syslog message
is generated as well indicating the sender device and the new and old channel
assignments.

STEP 1
Select the Single Point Setup > Channel Management in the navigation pane.
From the Channel Management page, you can view channel assignments for all
WAP devices in the cluster and stop or start automatic channel management. You
can also use the advanced settings to modify the interference reduction potential
that triggers channel reassignment, change the schedule for automatic updates,
and reconfigure the channel set used for assignments.

STEP 2
To start automatic channel assignment, click Start.
Channel management overrides the default cluster behavior, which is to
synchronize radio channels of all WAP devices that are members of the cluster.
When channel management is enabled, the radio channel is not synchronized
across the cluster to other devices.

When channel management is enabled, the radio channel is not synchronized

When automatic channel assignment is enabled, the channel manager periodically
maps radio channels used by WAP devices in a Single Point Setup cluster and, if
necessary, reassigns channels to reduce interference with cluster members or
with devices outside the cluster. The channel policy for the radio is automatically
set to static mode, and the Auto option is not available for the Channel field on the
Wireless > Radio page.
