1. A method to manage wireless network resources in a wireless local area (WLAN) controller, the method comprising:
maintaining, in a memory coupled to the WLAN controller, a list of specified service set identifier (SSID) devices, wherein maintaining the list of specified SSID devices in the memory comprises implementing a registration process in which at least one SSID device is registered with the WLAN controller as a specified SSID device associated with a dedicated communication channel; maintaining a plurality of designated communication channels available for use in a wireless network environment; defining at least one reserved communication channel from the plurality of designated communication channels; receiving, from an SSID device, a request for access to wireless network resources managed by the WLAN controller; and allocating the at least one reserved communication channel to the SSID device when the SSID device is included in the list of specified SSID devices. |
