echo-interval

Period of time in seconds before the WTP sends Echo Requests after joining AC. Set the value between 1-255 (or one second to four minutes and 25 seconds). The default is set to 30.

discovery-interval

Period of time in seconds between discovery requests. Set the value between 2-180 (or two seconds to three minutes). The default is set to 5.

client-idle-timeout

Period of time in seconds before client is considered idle and timeouts. Set the value between 20-3600 (or 20 seconds to one hour), or 0 for no timeout. The default is set to 300.

Intervals of time in minutes for periodic logging of rogue APs. Set the value between 0-1440 (or no logging to one day). The default is set to 0.

fake-ap-log

Intervals of time in minutes for periodic logging of fake APs. Fake APs serve to attract potential hackers and other intruders so as to collect information about them. Set the value between 0-1440 (or no interval to one day). The default is set to 1.

darrp-optimize

Intervals of time in seconds for Dynamic Automatic Radio Resource Provisioning (DARRP) optimization. Set the value between 0-86400 (or no interval to one day). The default is set to 1800.

sta-stats-interval

Intervals of time in seconds between station statistic reports. Set the value between 1-255 (or one second to four minutes and 25 seconds). The default is set to 1.

vap-stats-interval

Intervals of time in seconds between VAP statistic reports. Set the value between 1-255 (or one second to four minutes and 25 seconds). The default is set to 15.

radio-stats-interval

Intervals of time in seconds between radio statistic reports. Set the value between 1-255 (or one second to four minutes and 25 seconds). The default is set to 15.

sta-capability-interval

Intervals of time in seconds between station capability reports. Set the value between 1-255 (or one second to four minutes and 25 seconds). The default is set to 30.

sta-locate-timer

Intervals of time in seconds between station presence flushes by the WTP. Set the value between 0-86400 (or no interval to one day). The default is set to 1800.

ipsec-intf-cleanup

Time period to keep IPsec VPN interface after WTP sessions are disconnected (default = 120 sec).
