Mobile IP Shows if IP mobility has been enabled or disabled for the virtual AP.
HA Discovery on-
association
If enabled, all clients of a virtual-ap will received mobility service on association.
DoS Prevention Shows the status of the Dos Prevention option. If enabled, virtual APs ignore
deauthentication frames from clients. This prevents a successful deauth attack from
being carried out against the AP. This does not affect third-party APs.
Station Blacklisting Shows if the virtual AP has enabled or disabled detection of denial of service (DoS)
attacks, such as ping or SYN floods, that are not spoofed deauth attacks.
Blacklist Time Shows the number of seconds that a client will be quarantined from the network after
being blacklisted.
Authentication Failure
Blacklist Time
Shows the time, in seconds, a client is blocked if it fails repeated authentication. If the
virtual AP shows a value of 0, a blacklisted client is blocked indefinitely.
Fast Roaming Shows if the AP has enabled or disabled fast roaming.
Strict Compliance If enabled, the virtual AP denies client association requests if the AP and client station
have no common rates defined. Some legacy client stations which are not fully 802.11-
compliant may not include their configured rates in their association requests. Such non-
compliant stations may have difficulty associating with APs unless strict compliance is
disabled.
VLAN Mobility Shows if a virtual AP has enabled or disabled VLAN (Layer-2) mobility
Remote-AP Operation Shows when the virtual AP operates on a remote AP:
z always—Permanently enables the virtual AP.
z backup—Enables the virtual AP if the remote AP cannot connect to the controller.
z persistent—Permanently enables the virtual AP after the remote AP initially
connects to the controller.
z standard—Enables the virtual AP when the remote AP connects to the controller.
A remote AP should use always and backup for bridge SSIDs, and use persistent and
standard for 802.1x, tunneled, and split-tunneled SSIDs.
Convert Broadcast ARP
requests to unicast
If this option is enabled, all broadcast ARP requests are converted to unicast and sent
directly to the client. You can check the status of this option using the show ap active and
the show datapath tunnel command. If enabled, the output will display the letter a in the
flags column.
Band Steering Shows if band-steering has been enabled or disabled for a virtual AP.
ARM’s band steering feature encourages dual-band capable clients to stay on the 5GHz
band on dual-band APs. This frees up resources on the 2.4GHz band for single band
clients like VoIP phones.
Band steering reduces co-channel interference and increases available bandwidth for
dual-band clients, because there are more channels on the 5GHz band than on the
2.4GHz band. Dual-band 802.11n-capable clients may see even greater bandwidth
improvements, because the band steering feature will automatically select between
40MHz or 20MHz channels in 802.11n networks. This feature is disabled by default, and
must be enabled in a Virtual AP profile.
VoIP Call Admission
Control
Shows if WiFi VoIP Call Admission Control features are enabled or disabled.
VoIP Bandwidth based CAC Shows the maximum bandwidth that can be handled by one radio, in kbps.
VoIP Call Capacity Show the number of simultaneous calls that can be handled by one radio.
VoIP Bandwidth Capacity
(kbps)
Shows the maximum bandwidth that can be handled by one radio, in kbps.
VoIP Call Handoff
Reservation
Shows the percentage of call capacity reserved for mobile VoIP clients on call.
