To configure Channel Plan and Power Adjustment settings, click AP Management > RF Management.
Table 20 describes the RF Channel Plan and Power Adjustment fields you can configure.
Note: When the AP changes its channel, all associated wireless clients temporarily lose their connection to the AP
and must re-associate. The re-association can take several seconds, which can affect time-sensitive traffic such
as voice and video.

Description
Before you configure channel plan settings, select the mode to configure.
This field indicates the channel assignment mode. The mode of channel plan assignment can
be one of the following:
• Fixed Time—If you select the fixed time channel plan mode, you specify the time for the
channel plan and channel assignment. In this mode the plan is applied once every 24 hours
at the specified time.
• Manual—With the manual channel plan mode, you control and initiate the calculation and
assignment of the channel plan. You must manually run the channel plan algorithm and apply
the channel plan to the APs.
• Interval—In the interval channel plan mode, the switch periodically calculates and applies
the channel plan. You can configure the interval to be from every 6 to every 24 hours. The
interval period begins when you click Submit.
The channel plan history lists the channels the switch assigns each of the APs it manages
after a channel plan is applied. Entries are added to the history regardless of interval, time, or
channel plan mode.
The number you specify in this field controls the number of iterations of the channel
assignment.
Note: The APs changed in previous iterations cannot be assigned new channels in the next
iteration. This history prevents the same APs from being changed time after time. For
example, if the history depth is set to 3, and an access point changes its channel for iteration
1, then it will not change the channel before iteration 5 of the channel adjustment algorithm
(if needed).
