Antenna Parameters

[Knutsen2004]

Hi

Im upgrading a WLC HW from WLC 4400 to WLC 5508 and my question is, what will happen to the ap parameters like antenna gain, antenna type that is set on the WLC under radio settings for each ap.

Is this info stored on the AP or is it on the WLC , so this wil disappear when the ap join the new WLC.

I had not planned to do a restore from the old WLC to the new one.

You will need to re-enter the external antenna configuration.

If the external antenna has similar power of the internal antenna, don't waste your time.

However, if you are using a high-gain antenna then it's worth the while to configure the power.
