Enabling and Disabling Gratuitous Probe Response
Enabling and Disabling Gratuitous Probe Response
Gratuitous Probe Response (GPR) aids in conserving battery power in dual mode phones that support
cellular and WLAN modes of operation. GPR is available on 5-Ghz radios and is disabled by default.
You can configure two GPR settings:
Period—This setting determines the time between GPR transmissions in Kusec intervals from 10 to
255 (similar to the beacon period)
Speed—The speed is the data rate used to transmit the GPR
Selecting a longer period reduces the amount of RF bandwidth consumed by the GPR with the possibility
of shorter battery life. Selecting higher transmission speeds also reduces the amount of bandwidth
consumed but at the expense of a smaller cell size.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable GPR and set its parameters:
The optional parameters can be configured independently or combined when you do not want to use the
defaults, as shown in the following examples:
(config-if)# probe-response gratuitous period 30
Step 4
antenna receive
{diversity | left | middle | right}
Set the receive antenna to diversity, left, middle, right, or all.
Note For best performance with two antennas, leave the
receive antenna setting at the default setting, diversity.
For one antenna, attach the antenna on the right and set
the antenna for right.
Step 5
antenna transmit
{diversity | left | right}
Set the transmit antenna to diversity, left, or right.
Note For best performance with two antennas, leave the
receive antenna setting at the default setting, diversity.
For one antenna, attach the antenna on the right and set
the antenna for right.
Step 6
end Return to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface dot11radio {1} Enter interface configuration mode for the 5-GHz radio
interface.
Step 3
probe-response gratuitous
{period | speed}
Enable the Gratuitous Probe Response feature using default
period (10 Kusec) and speed (6.0 Mbps).
Step 4
period Kusec (Optional) Enter a value from 10 to 255. The default value is 10
Step 5

{[6.0] [9.0] [12.0] [18.0] [24.0]
[36.0] [48.0 ] [54.0] }
(Optional) Sets the response speed in Mbps. The default value
is 6.0.
