A council chamber WLAN uses DFS channels. What awareness should the assessment note include?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
DFS is the polite rule that says “if weather radar shows up, give that channel back.” Expect the AP to duck out—don’t assume that 5 GHz channel is glued in place.
Full Explanation
Dynamic Frequency Selection requires WLAN devices on certain 5 GHz channels to detect radar and vacate or switch channels. That behavior can interrupt connectivity and change what assessors observe mid-engagement. Notes should flag DFS use so intermittency is not misread as a simple power or cable fault.
