Cisco AP 541N Dual-band Single-radio Access Point Quick Start Guide

When Channel Management is enabled, the access point automatically assigns 
radio channels used by clustered access points. The automatic channel 
assignment reduces mutual interference (or interference with other access points 
outside of its cluster) and maximizes Wi-Fi bandwidth to help maintain the 
efficiency of communication over the wireless network.

You must start channel management to get automatic channel assignments; it is 
disabled by default on a new access point.

At a specified interval, the Channel Manager maps access point

s

 to channel use 

and measures interference levels in the cluster. If significant channel interference is 
detected, the Channel Manager automatically re-assigns some or all of the access 
point

s

 to new channels per an efficiency algorithm (or 

plan).

The Channel Management page shows previous, current, and planned channel 
assignments for clustered access points. By default, automatic channel 
assignment is disabled. You can start channel management to optimize channel 
usage across the cluster on a scheduled interval.

To configure and view the channel assignments for the cluster members, click the 
Channel Management tab.
