When you create a new AP group and modify any of the ARM Adaptive Radio Management. ARM dynamically monitors and adjusts the network to ensure that all users are allowed ready access. It enables full utilization of the available spectrum to support maximum number of users by intelligently choosing the best RF channel and transmit power for APs in their current RF environment. settings for that group, AOS-8 creates a unique profile for that AP group. The settings in these default profiles may vary, depending upon the radio type. The default ARM Adaptive Radio Management.
