When you run Dynamic Channel Selection (DCS) with DCS Client Aware disabled, the APs perform channel selection without considering the current state and activity of connected clients.
Here's what you can expect:
· Immediate Channel Switching:
- APs may switch channels more abruptly, without waiting for an optimal time based on client activity. This can result in sudden disconnections or interruptions for connected clients.
· Potential Client Disruption:
- Clients engaged in high-bandwidth activities (like video calls or streaming) may experience disruptions or degraded performance if the AP changes channels.
· Channel Management:
- Channel management focuses solely on minimizing interference and optimizing channel use based on environmental factors, which can still improve overall network performance, albeit without client-specific considerations.
