New Features

Optimize and update default DARRP parameters

Optimize and update default DARRP parameters

This information is also available in the FortiWiFi and FortiAP Configuration Guide 8.0 Configuration Guide:

This release removes the old default DARRP profile arrp-default and replaces it with two new DARRP profiles, arrp-default-high-density and arrp-default-medium-density. These new profiles are configured for high and medium density environments, enabling users to choose a profile that best fits their deployment environment. When you first enable DARRP under a radio, the ARRP profile is automatically set to arrp-default-high-density.

The maximum value for all weight settings has also been reduced to a more reasonable range of 200, and the default values for weight-rogue-ap, weight-weather-channel, and weight-dfs-channel have been adjusted to enable more realistic and effective channel assessment.

CLI Changes

There are two new DARRP profiles available:

config wireless-controller arrp-profile
  edit "arrp-default-high-density"
  next
  edit "arrp-default-medium-density"
    set threshold-noise-floor "-95"
    set threshold-channel-load 50
    set threshold-spectral-rssi "-75"
    set threshold-tx-retries 200
  next
end

The default values for the following options have been adjusted:

Option

New default

weight-rogue-ap

weight-weather-channel
