Chapter 5 - Command Line Interface
Command Usage
If the threshold is set to 20, the SU-A-EZ always sends RTS signals. If set to 2347, the
SU-A-EZ never sends RTS signals. If set to any other value, and the packet size equals
or exceeds the RTS threshold, the RTS/CTS (Request to Send / Clear to Send)
mechanism will be enabled.
The SU-A-EZ sends RTS frames to a receiving station to negotiate the sending of a data
frame. After receiving an RTS frame, the station sends a CTS frame to notify the
SU-A-EZ that it can start sending data.
SU-A-EZs contending for the wireless medium may not be aware of each other. The
RTS/CTS mechanism can solve this "Hidden Node" problem.
Example
Installer# set ClientSta rtsthreshold 20
Installer#
5.9.10 set ClientSta txpowerlevel
This command adjusts the power of the radio signals transmitted from the
SU-A-EZ. The higher the transmission power, the farther the transmission range.
Power selection is not just a trade off between coverage area and maximum
supported clients. You also have to ensure that high-power signals do not
interfere with the operation of other radio devices in the service area. The "full"
transmission power level corresponds to the maximum power level allowed for the
currently used regdomain setting.
Syntax
set ClientSta txpowerlevel <Full | Half | Quarter | Eighth | Min>
• Full - 100% of maximum transmission power level.
• Half - 50% of maximum transmission power level.
• Quarter - 25% of maximum transmission power level.
• Eighth - 12.5% of maximum transmission power level.
• Min - Minimum transmission power level (0 dBm).
