Sample configuration for Agile DFS

Host configuration—Debug mode

  1. Enable Agile-DFS scanning. In etc/config/wireless add the following options option preCACEn 1 option pCACTimeout
  2. Configure Agile-DFS host commands. cfg80211tool wifiX get_preCACEn # get current status of ADFS scanning radartool –i wifiX showpreCACLists # displays current preCAC chans cfg80211tool wifiX get_pCACTimeout cfg80211tool wifiX pCACTimeout radartool –i wifiX use_precacnol 0 # disable precacnol
  3. Configure Agile-DFS host driver debug output. Execution of the following commands will enable kernel prints as shown in this slide. cfg80211tool athX qdf_cv_lvl 0x00270008 radartool –i wifX dfsdebug 0x100 Host configuration—Production mode In production mode, customers can enable the Agile DFS feature by configuring the following options in etc/config/wireless
  • option preCACEn —This flag will enable the Agile Scanning. The AP will generate a list of channels to be scanned
  • option pCACTimeout —This flag allows a customer to override the pre-CAC timeout value. The default values are as follows for min and max scan times.
