To conduct Smart RF calibration:

Select Operations.

Select Smart RF.

The Smart RF screen populates with information specific to the devices within the RF Domain with
updated data from the last interactive calibration.

Smart RF screen

Refer to the following to determine whether Smart RF calibrations or interactive calibration is
required:

Hostname

Displays the user friendly hostname assigned to each access point within the RF
Domain. This value cannot be modified as a part of calibration activity.

AP MAC Address

Displays the hardware encoded MAC address assigned to each access point within
the RF Domain. This value cannot be modified as past of a calibration activity.

Radio MAC Address

Displays the hardware encoded MAC address assigned to each access point radio
within the RF Domain. This value cannot be modified as past of a calibration activity.

Radio Index

Displays a numerical index assigned to each listed access point radio when it was
added to the network. This index helps distinguish this radio from others within the
RF Domain with similar configurations. This value is not subject to change as a
result of a calibration activity, but each listed radio index can be used in Smart RF
calibration.

Old Channel

Lists the channel originally assigned to each listed access point within the RF
Domain. This value may have been changed as part an Interactive Calibration
process applied to the RF Domain. Compare this Old Channel against the Channel
value to right of it (in the table) to determine whether a new channel assignment was
warranted to compensate for a coverage hole.

Channel

Lists the current channel assignment for each listed access point, as potentially
updated by an Interactive Calibration. Use this data to determine whether a channel
assignment was modified as part of an Interactive Calibration. If a revision was
made to the channel assignment, a coverage hole was detected on the channel as a
result of a potentially failed or under performing access point radio within the RF
Domain.
