Wireless Access

Hello all,

Coordinated Access to A Single Channel is used to configure all AP's with the same channel. I suppose that I need to disable ARM and use all AP's with a certain channel. If I select channel 1 and if I got an interferecen on that channel, than I have a problem, right? So why o use this option? If I use 5 AP's with the same channel: I dont get less airime for other clients?

Thanks

What is coordinated access to a single channel?

Allows nearby APs on the same channel to share spectrum. Or I am wrong?

Is this mentioned in Aruba documentation?  

Yes

Where?

https://www.streakwave.com/aruba/resources/TB_ARM%282%29.pdf

That document is from 2010.  I would only look on the Aruba website for up-to-date information.

Please see the document here:  http://www.arubanetworks.com/assets/tg/TB_EnhancedClientMatch.pdf

Thank you Colin, but I dont see any info about a single channel used on nearby AP's.

OK, so ARUBA doesnt recommend this option anymore. You could tell me this at the beginning and to write several posts :)

I apologize.

I had to:

- Find out  what you were talking about

- Find out where it is documented

- Make sure that is no longer a feature

EDIT:

In 2010 coordinated access to a channel was important because many devices only did b/g and there was limited channel space.  Today there is 5ghz 802.11ac with many more channels and much improved performance, so that feature is not needed like it was in 2010.

Thank you Colin
