Introduction

Briefly describe in general terms the system/application and the purpose for which it is intended, written in non-technical terminology. Consider including a high-level architecture diagram for the system. The description should include, but is not limited to, the following:

...

Band Steering is a solution ensures that clients are connected to the best radio. Dual Band supported Gateway can transmit SSIDs in both 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency band. Enabling and disabling of Band Steering can be done through dmcli command line utility.

Environment Setup

• Set-up Considerations

<Briefly describe and graphically depict as appropriate the equipment, communications, and network configuration of the system in a way that a non-technical user can understand>Band Steering feature requires dual band capability i.e device should be able to broadcast SSID in both 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency. Also this feature will be of use and applicable only to 5GHz capable device. Older 2.4 GHz-only capable devices cannot benefit from this feature. Still older 2.4GHz-only clients can connect and operate on 2.4GHz frequency only.

• User Access Considerations
