Parameters
None
Description
Use the a-mpdu enable command to enable the A-MPDU function for the radio.
Use the undo a-mpdu enable command to disable the A-MPDU function for the radio.
Support for the command depends on the device model.
By default, the A-MPDU function is enabled on an 802.11n radio.
This command is only effective on 802.11n radios.
If you change the radio type of an 802.11n radio, the default setting for this function of the new radio
Use the a-msdu enable command to enable the A-MSDU function for the radio.
Use the undo a-msdu enable command to disable the A-MSDU function for the radio.
Support for the command depends on the device model.
By default, the A-MSDU function is enabled on an 802.11n radio.
This command is only effective on 802.11n radios. If you change the radio type of an 802.1 1n radio, the
default setting for this function of the new radio type will be restored.
Currently, the AP can only receive A-MSDU frames.
Use the beacon ssid-hide command to disable the advertising of Service Set Identifier (SSID) in the
beacon frames.
Use the undo beacon ssid-hide command to restore the default configuration.
By default, SSID is advertised in the beacon frames.
10-2
If the advertising of the SSID in beacon frames is disabled, the SSID must be configured fo r the cli ents
to associate with the AP.
Disabling the advertising of the SSID in beacon frames does little good to wireless security . Allo wing the
advertising of the SSID in beacon frames enables an AP to discover a client more easily.
interval: Specifies the interval between sending beacon frames. The value ra nges from 32 to 8191 T ime
Units (TUs). One TU equals 1024 microseconds.
Description
Use the beacon-interval command to set the interval of sending beacon frames.
Use the undo beacon-interval command to restore the default.
By default, the value of the beacon interval is 100 TUs.
An AP sends beacon frames at the specified interval..
channel-number: Channel number. The channel numbers depend on specific country code and radio
mode. The channel list depends on your device model .
auto: Specifies that the channel is automatically selected by the device according to the actual
environment during system initialization.
Description
Use the channel command to configure the operating channel for the radio.
Use the undo channel command to restore the default.
By default, auto mode is set.
Different radios support different channels. Channels may differ for each co untry.
Examples
# Configure interface WLAN-Radio 1/0/2 to operate on channel 6.
20: Specifies the 802.11n channel bandwidth as 20 MHz.
40: Specifies the 802.11n channel bandwidth as 40 MHz.
Description
Use the channel band-width command to specify the channel ba ndwidth of the 802.11n radio.
Use the undo channelband-width command to restore the default.
Support for the command depends on the device model.
By default, the channel bandwidth of the 802.1 1an radio is 40 MHz, and that of the 802.11gn radio is 20
MHz.
This command is only effective on 802.11n radios. If you change the radio type of an 802.1 1n radio, the
default setting for this function of the new radio type will be restored.
Currently, an 802.11a/n or 802.11g/n radio working in 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz bands selects an available 40
MHz channel as the operating channel. If no 40 MHz channel is available, it select s a 20 MH z channel.
Examples
# Configure the channel bandwidth of the radio as 20 MHz.
Use the client dot11n-only command to allow only 802.11n clients to access.
Use the undo client dot11n-only command to restore the default.
Support for the command depends on the device model.
By default, an 802.11a/n radio permits both 802.11a and 802.11n clients to access, and an 802.11g/n
radio permits both 802.11b/g and 802.11n clients to access.
An 802.11n radio supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands and thus can allow 802.11a/b/g stations to
access for good compatibility.
The client dot11n-only command prohibits non-802.11n clients from access. Therefore, if you want to
provide access for all 802.11a/b/g clients, you need to disable this command.
Examples
# Configure the radio to allow only 802.11n clients to access.
max-number: Maximum number of clients associated to a radio, which ranges from 1 to 124.

View
WLAN radio interface view
Default Level
2: System level
Parameters
counter: Number of beacons between delivery traffic indication message (DTIM) frames, which ran ges
from 1 to 31. For example, if the counter is 1, each beacon frame carries DTIM information.
Description
Use the dtim command to set the beacon frame counter for the AP before it start s sending the buf fered
multicast and broadcast frames.
Use the undo dtim command to restore the default.
By default, the DTIM counter is 1.
The AP sends the buffered broadcast/multicast frames when the DTIM counter reaches 0.
size: Specifies the maximum length of the frame without fragmentation. The value ranges from 256 to
2346 bytes and must be an even number.
Description
Use the fragment-threshold command to specify the maximum length of packet that can be
transmitted without fragmentation.
Use the undo fragment-threshold command to restore the default.
By default, the fragment threshold is 2346 bytes.
When the actual packet size exceeds the specified fragment threshold value, the packets are

rts-threshold
Syntax
rts-threshold size
undo rts-threshold
View
WLAN radio interface view
Default Level
2: System level
Parameters
size: Specifies the maximum frame length required by the RTS method. The value ranges from 0 to
2346 bytes.
Description
Use the rts-threshold command to specify the request to send (RTS) threshold length. Use the undo
rts-threshold command to restore the default value.
By default, the rts-threshold is 2346 bytes.
If the frame length is beyond this value, the RTS mechanism will be used.
10-17
Request to Send (RTS) is used to avoid data sending collisions in a WLAN. You need to set a rational
value:
A small value causes RTS packets to be sent more often, thus consuming more of the available
bandwidth. However, the more often RTS packets are sent, the quicker the system can recover from
interference or collisions.
service-template-number: Service-template number, which ranges from 1 to 1024.
wlan-bss-number: WLAN-BSS interface number, which ranges from 0 to 255.
Description
Use the service-template command to map the service template to the specified WLAN-BSS interface
on the current WLAN-Radio interface.
Use the undo service-template command to remove the mapping.
By default, no service-template is mapped to WLAN-BSS interface on this WLAN-Radio interface.
Examples
# Map service template 1 to WLAN-BSS 1 on WLAN-Radio 1/0/1.
service-template { disable | enable } (WLAN service template view)
Syntax
service-template { disable | enable }
View
WLAN service template view
Default Level
2: System level
10-18
Parameters
disable: Disables the service template.
enable: Enables the service template.
Description
Use the service-template enable command to enable the service template.
Use the service-template disable command to disable the service template.
By default, the service-template is disabled.
Use the short-gi enable command to enable the short GI function.
Use the undo short-gi enable command to disable the short GI function.
By default, the short GI function is enabled.
This command is only effective on 802.11n radios.
If you change the radio type of an 802.11n radio, the default setting for this function of the new radio
type will be restored.
Delays may occur during receiving radio signals due to factors like multi-path reception. Therefore, a
subsequently sent frame may interfere with a previously sent frame. The GI function is used to avoid
such interference. It increases the data speed by 10 percent.
The short GI function is independent of bandwidth and thus supports both 20 MHz and 40 MHz
bandwidths.
count: Number of retry times AP can send a short unicast frame (frame size less than the R TS threshold)
without receiving an acknowledgment. The value ranges from 1 to 15.
Description
Use the short-retry threshold command to specify the maximum number of attempts to transmit a
frame less than RTS threshold.
Use the undo short-retry threshold command to restore the default.
By default, the short retry threshold is 7.
Use the shutdown command to shut down the radio that is being used.
Use the undo shutdown command to enable the ra dio.
By default, the radio is enabled.
ssid-name: Name of the service set identifier, a case sensitive string of 1 to 32 characters that can
contain letters, digits, underlines, and space s.
Description
Use the ssid command to set the SSID for the current service template.
Use the undo ssid command to remove the SSID.
By default, the SSID of service template 1 is set to H3C.
An SSID should be as unique as possible.
Examples
# Set the SSID to firstfloor for service template 1.
Use the wlan broadcast-probe reply command to enable the AP to respond to the probe requests with
SSID null sent by the client.
Use the undo wlan broadcast-probe reply command to remove the configuration. In other words, the
AP responds only to probe requests that carry the specified SSID.
By default, an AP responds to probe requests with SSID null sent by the client.
Examples
# Enable the AP to respond to probe requests with SSID null sent by the client.
interval: Specifies the time for which the link between A P and client ( power-save or awake ) can be idle.
The value ranges from 60 to 86400 seconds.
Description
Use the wlan client idle-timeout command to specify the idle time functionality.
Use the undo wlan client idle-timeout command to restore the default.
By default, client idle timeout is 3600 seconds..
If the client is idle for more than the specified interval, that is if the AP does not receive any data from the
client within a specified interval, the client will be removed from the network.
interval: Specifies the interval betwe en keep alive req uests. The value ranges from 3 to 1800 seconds.
Description
Use the client keep-alive command to specify the keep alive interval.
Use the undo client keep-alive command to cancel the keep-alive functionality.
By default, client keep-alive function is disabled.
The keep-alive mechanism is used to detect clients segregated fro m the system due to various reasons
such as power failure or crash, and disconnect them from AP.
