    Im aware that by defaut Airmatch changes are pushed dynamically every 24 hours.

     

    What happens when intererence or a high number of clients are introduced to an enviorment in the middle of the day unpredicted?

     

    How can my enviorment adjust on the fly without ARM ?

    I've had a look at the documentation and it states:

     

    An exception to this daily update is an automatic channel change due to a radar detection event or high noise interference. If an AP detects a radar event on its current operating channel, that AP automatically changes to another supported channel to avoid radar interference, and does not wait for the daily RF configuration update from the Mobility Master. An AP may also automatically change channels if a very high noise level is detected on the current channel, if at least one other channel is free of noise.

    Think of environmental triggers being still based on the previous ARM settings, but AirMatch handles the globla RF settings/picture.

    Hi Jerrod,
    Are those changes only apply to location (Aps) that is experiencing that High Noise or Radar ?

    Correct, when RF noise, interference, or DFS triggers occur or thresholds are exceeded per AP.
