5GHz bands. Balancing radio load by band ratio allows an administrator to assign a greater weight to radio traffic on either
the 2.4 or 5.0 GHz band. This setting is enabled by default.
5. Set the following

Balance 5GHz Channel
Loads
6. Select the Balance AP Loads
This setting is disabled by default, keeping the load on this access point radio.
7. Set the following

Select this option to use roamed client notifications in the neighbor selection process.
This feature is enabled by default, allowing access points in the neighbor selection
process to consider device roaming counts as selection criteria.
Select this option to use SMART RF access point transmission adjustments as criteria
in the neighbor selection process. This feature is enabled by default.
radio button to balance the radio load, by assigning a ratio to both the 2.4 and
Channel Load Balancing
Select this option to balance loads across channels in the 2.4 GHz radio band. This can
prevent congestion on the 2.4 GHz radio if a channel is over utilized. This setting is
enabled by default. Selecting this feature enables parameters within the Channel
Load Balancing field for assigning weightage and throughput values.
Select this option to balance loads across channels in the 5.0 GHz radio band. This can
prevent congestion on the 5.0 GHz radio if a channel is over utilized. This setting is
enabled by default. Selecting this feature enables parameters within the Channel
Load Balancing field for assigning weightage and throughput values.
radio button to distribute this access point's radio load amongst other access point radios.
Band Control values within the
Use the spinner control to set a value (from 0 - 100%) considered an adequate
discrepancy (or deviation) when comparing 2.4 and 5GHz radio band load balances.
The default setting is 1%. Thus, using a default setting of 10% means 10% is
considered inconsequential when comparing 2.4 and 5.0 GHz load balances on this
access point. This setting is not available if the Steering Strategy has been set to
Disable.
Use the spinner control to set a loading ratio (from 0 - 10) the access point 2.4 GHz
radio uses in respect to radio traffic load on the 2.4 GHz band. This allows an
administrator to weight the traffic load if wishing to prioritize client traffic on the 2.4
GHz radio band. The higher the value set, the greater the weight assigned to radio
traffic load on the 2.4 GHz radio band. The default setting is 1. This setting is enabled
only when Steer by ratio is selected as the steering strategy.
Use the spinner control to set a loading ratio (from 0 - 10) the access point
5.0 GHz radio uses in respect to radio traffic on the 5.0 GHz band. This allows an
administrator to weight client traffic if wishing to prioritize client traffic on the 5.0 GHz
radio band. The higher the value set, the greater the weight assigned to radio traffic
load on the 5.0 GHz radio band. The default setting is 1. This setting is enabled only
when Steer by ratio is selected as the steering strategy.
When the Steering Strategy is set to Steer at 5.0 GHz, use the spinner control to set
a value (from 0 - 100%) at which the load on the 2.4 GHz radio is equally preferred to
this 5.0 GHz radio load. The default is 10%.
