OL-17037-01
config {802.11a | 802.11b} picocell enable—Enables pico cell mode version 1. This command is
designed for use with a specific application. Cisco recommends that you use the config {802.11a |
802.11b} picocell-V2 enable command if you want to enable pico cell mode.
config {802.11a | 802.11b} picocell-V2 enable—Enables pico cell mode version 2. Use this
command if you want to adjust the pico cell mode parameters to optimize network performance in
high-density areas.
To configure the receive sensitivity threshold, enter this command:
config advanced {802.11a | 802.11b} receiver pico-cell-V2 rx_sense_threshold min max current
To configure the CCA sensitivity threshold, enter this command:
config advanced {802.11a | 802.11b} receiver pico-cell-V2 cca_sense_threshold min max current
To configure the transmit power, enter this command:
config advanced {802.11a | 802.11b} receiver pico-cell-V2 sta_tx_pwr min max current
To see the current status of pico cell mode, enter this command:
show {802.11a | 802.11b}
