Abstract:
A cloud-based Wi-Fi controller facilitates forced transitions. Dynamic RSSI thresholds for sticky-client stations are calculated and periodically updated based on changing conditions. When measured RSSI values reach a dynamic RSSI threshold, the cloud-based Wi-Fi controller reassociates the sticky-client station with a preferred access point, regardless of whether the sticky-client station has reached the same determination.
