set {ap | dap} radio
auto-tune max-
retransmissions

Sets the maximum percentage of client retransmissions a radio can
experience before RF Auto-Tuning considers changing the channel on the
radio. A high percentage of retransmissions is a symptom of interference
on the channel.

retransmissions

Percentage of packets that can result in

retransmissions without resulting in a channel change. You can
specify from 1 to 100.

Defaults — The default is 10 percent.

Access — Enabled.

History —Introduced in MSS Version 3.0. Option auto added for
configuration of the MAP configuration profile.

Usage — A retransmission is a packet sent from a client to a MAP radio
that the radio receives more than once. This can occur when the client
does not receive an 802.11 acknowledgement for a packet sent to the
radio.

If the radio receives only a single copy of a packet that is transmitted
multiple times by a client, the packet is not counted by the radio as a
retransmission. For example, if a packet is corrupted and the radio does
not receive it, but the second copy of the packet does reach the radio,
the radio does not count the packet as a retransmission since the radio
received only one recognizable copy of the packet.
