DESCRIPTION
Bridge/Repeater, AP+Bridge and MESSID.
Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region.
To manually set the ZyAIR to use a channel, select a channel from the drop-down
list box. Click MAINTENANCE and then the Channel Usage tab to open the
Channel Usage screen to make sure the channel is not already used by another AP
or independent peer-to-peer wireless network.
To have the ZyAIR automatically select a channel, click Scan instead.
Refer to the Wizard Setup
Click this button to have the ZyAIR automatically scan for and select a channel with
the least interference.
(Request To Send) The threshold (number of bytes) for enabling RTS/CTS
handshake. Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS
handshake. Setting this attribute to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC
service data unit) size turns off the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to
zero turns on the RTS/CTS handshake. Enter a value between 800 and 2432.
The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for directed
messages. It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter a value
between 800 and 2432.
The SSID (Service Set IDentity) identifies the Service Set with which a wireless
station is associated. Wireless stations associating to the access point (AP) must
have the same SSID. Select an SSID Profile from the drop-down list box.
Configure SSID profiles in the SSID screen.
Note: If you are configuring the ZyAIR from a computer connected to
the wireless LAN and you change the ZyAIR's SSID or security
settings, you will lose your wireless connection when you press
Apply to confirm. You must then change the wireless settings of your
computer to match the ZyAIR's new settings.
