Description

The airmatch ap freeze command deploys the specified channel and EIRP values to a radio immediately, then freezes those values, regardless of whether the AirMatch RF planning schedule is enabled or disabled. A radio set with the airmatch ap freeze command uses a static radio configuration until those settings get explicitly canceled with the airmatch ap unfreeze command. This command can be used to freeze either the channel or the EIRP value, or both values.  For example, you can freeze the channel on an AP radio, while allowing the EIRP values to be updated by AirMatch.

Syntax

Parameter

Description

freeze

Apply the specified AirMatch settings on the radio, then freeze those settings until they are manually removed.

This parameter supports both single radio and dual-radio APs.

unfreeze

Remove AirMatch settings manually applied using the Freeze command.

This parameter supports both single radio and dual-radio APs.

all-aps

Freeze or unfreeze AirMatch settings on all APs.

ap-group <ap-group>

Freeze or unfreeze AirMatch settings on the specified AP group

ap-name <ap-name>

Freeze or unfreeze AirMatch settings on the specified AP

ip-addr <ip-addr>

Freeze or unfreeze AirMatch settings on the AP with the specified IPv4 IP address.

ip6-addr <i6p-addr>

Freeze or unfreeze AirMatch settings on the AP with the specified IPv6 IP address.

band <band>

Set AirMatch settings for the specified radio band. Supported values are 2.4GHz and 5GHz. The radio band must be specified if you use the unfreeze parameter to unfreeze an AP radio.

The values, 5GHzu for upper-band radios and 5GHzl for lower-band radios are supported by the following APs.

AP-344

AP-345

AP-555

channel <channel>

Channel number for the AP 802.11a/b/g, 802.11nor 802.11ac physical layer, (example: 1, 1+, 36, 36+, 36E, 36S, 36E+149E). The available channels depend on the regulatory domain (country).

36S is 160 MHz wide contiguous channel

36E+149E is 160 MHz wide channel defined as 2 separate 80 MHz channel ranges

eirp <dBm>

The transmission power level (in dBm) to be assigned to the AP radio(s). Starting with AOS 8.2, you can specify EIRP values in increments of .1 dBm. 270 Series access points support both positive and negative EIRP values. All other APs support positive EIRP values only.

The following legacy APs do not support advanced power controls, and can only be configured in positive EIRP values in increments of .5 dBm.

90 Series

100 Series

110 Series

170 Series

RAP-155

lms
   lms-ip <lms-ip>
   lms-ipv6 <lms-ipv6>

Include this parameter to freeze or unfreeze AP channels on a local controller. This parameter is only valid if you freeze or unfreeze channels using the ap-group or all-aps options.

Example

(host)[mynode](config)# airmatch ap freeze {ip-addr <ip-addr>}|{ip6-addr <ip6-addr>}|{ap-name <ap-name>}|{ap-group <ap-group>}|{all-aps} {band <band>}|{channel <channel>}|{eirp <eirp>}{lms {lms-ip <lms-ip>}|{{lms-ipv6 <lms-ipv6>}}

Unfreezing a radio configuration with the airmatch ap unfreeze command does not mean that there will automatically be an immediate change in the channel and EIRP values for that radio. It does, however, mean that the AirMatch algorithm can assign a new set of values at the next update.

(host)[mynode](config)# airmatch ap unfreeze {ip-addr <ip-addr>}|{ip6-addr <ip6-addr>}|{ap-name <ap-name>}|{ap-group <ap-group>}|{all-aps} band <band> {channel <channel>}|{eirp <eirp>}{lms {lms-ip <lms-ip>}|{{lms-ipv6 <lms-ipv6>}}
