Hi all,

What does log mean?(channel-wifi1: Pausing 10 minutes (DFS related))

I heard that it takes about 10 minutes to broadcast SSID in the 5GHz band, so I checked the support log.

Apr 27 02:27:55 2819 daemon.info channel-wifi1: Found 24 valid channels
Apr 27 02:27:55 2819 daemon.info channel-wifi1: Pausing 10 minutes (DFS related)
Apr 27 02:27:55 2819 daemon.info channel-wifi1: Pausing 1 minute (target VAP wait related) for fc:5c:45:21:86:2c

I understand that it is a log related to the DFS channel, but I don't know exactly what it means.

Does anyone know?

Thank you.
