Norman Abramson, a professor at the University of Hawaii, developed the world’s first wireless computer communication network, ALOHAnet (operational in 1971), using low-cost ham-like radios. The system included seven computers deployed over four islands to communicate with the central computer on the Oahu Island without using phone lines.

Note: Only Cisco APs can beam-form a 3-SS signal as it requires 4 transmitters - most APs on the market don’t have this additional radio for reliability and performance ☺ The additional radio assists in both transmit and receive.

The extra radio “D” is used to augment spatial stream data and is used in beam-forming Note .11n had support for beam-forming but was never adopted so few if any clients supported it. Client-Link performs beam-forming on legacy 11a/g/n clients as well as 802.11ac clients.

ClientLink 3.0 YouTube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0q_shbSpOIA

•  ClientLink 3.0 helps the Cisco AP maintain 256 QAM with m9 rate

•  Cisco’s 11ac AP has a significant 256 QAM advantage over the competition 11ac AP

•  The Test: Use a MacBook Pro (3ss) and record the data rate in 40+ locations in a cubicle environment while running traffic to the client.

Customer have requested the need to leverage the AP for end devices such as projectors, phones, Point of Sale Terminals etc.– Note today this AUX port is locally switched and not managed* This will be improved in later releases but for now there is no LAG or any management of this port in the 7.6MR2 initial release. *Note: Do not connect the “AUX” port to the same uplink switch as the AP.

*Note: Port is enabled by default if running high PoE power over 15.4W and there is no spanning tree protection right now all to be addressed later.

•  In 7.5, we worked on scaling and expanding services: 1. Location Specific Services (LSS): tired of seeing all wireless Apple TVs in the entire campus? Enable “LSS”, and only see the Bonjour devices on the AP you are associated to

2. mDNS AP: In 7.4, wired devices must be on WLC trunk to be seen. In 7.5, Bonjour devices on mdns-AP switch are also listed

3. Origin-Based Service Discovery: only want to see wired Bonjour Devices (including mDNS AP)? Or only wireless Bonjour devices? Enable Origin-Based Service Discovery and you will only see wireless or wired

Co channel interference is key. Consider using only 20Mhz wide channels instead of bonding channels at 40 or even 80Mhz for 802.11ac. You will need to shutoff some of the 2.4Ghz radios depending on how many AP’s are in the room for channel isolation. Remember, 2.4Ghz has only 3 channels, 1,6 and 11. I use about 50 users per AP for rough sizing guide before construction. AP’s outside of the HDR can cause co-channel interference. Consider this into the design and you maybe able to isolate them with patch antenna’s also. Omni directional antennas are NOT a good option for HDR because of RF propagation. Always use a directional patch antenna such as the Cisco AIR-ANT2566 as this will help reduce the RF cell size. Using ether a 3602E or 3702E is a good option from an AP standpoint. Reduce data rates to reduce cell size on both the 2.4 and 5Ghz spectrum. AP’s with directional patch antennas won’t hear each other very well for TPC so RRM will adjust the power to the highest power. Make sure to survey and set power to lower maximum to achieve 20% overlap of cells. With no occupancy in the room, RRM will adjust TPC lower. Since RRM does slow incremental adjustments, consider setting a minimum TPC power setting for for when the 180lbs water bags fill the room again. Set a value for RX-SOP “Receive Start Of Packet”. This will make AP’s hard of hearing for other AP’s and clients on the same channel. Be careful !!

•  Receiver Start of Packet Detection Threshold (RX-SOP) determines the Wi-Fi signal level in dBm at which an AP radio will demodulate and decode a packet.

•  The higher the level, the less sensitive the radio is and the smaller the receiver cell size will be

•  By reducing the cell size we can affect every thing from the distribution of clients to our perception of channel utilization

•  This is for High Density designs – and requires knowledge of the behavior you want to support

•  A client needs to have someplace to go if you ignore it on the current cell

WARNING – This setting is a brick wall – if you set it above where your clients are being heard – they will no longer be heard. Really.

Page 81: Cisco livelocal2014 wirelessupdate

© 2012 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. 81

•  Reduce sensitivity to interference and noise – reduce Channel Utilization

•  It sharpens the cell edge – we will hear what we intend to cover

•  Caveats – You can significantly reduce coverage You can make it impossible for intended clients to associate or communicate with your AP

•  This feature is to be used in conjunction with a known design to solve a specific problems when you understand the coverage and usage of the network by the users

•  RX-SOP is available at the global level as well as in RF profiles – Strongly recommend applying only through profiles – to solve specific problems with HDX

Page 82: Cisco livelocal2014 wirelessupdate

© 2012 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. 82

•  Settings High, Medium, Low, Auto

•  Auto is default behavior, and leaves RX-SOP function linked to CCA threshold for automatic adjustment

•  Most networks can support a LOW setting and see improvement

•  This affects all packets seen at the receiver
