• The following options are available for an 802.11b/g AP:
— Operational Mode: An 802.11b/g wireless interface can be configured to operate in the following modes:
— 802.11b mode only
— 802.11g mode only
— 802.11g-wifi mode
— 802.11b/g mode (default)
— Primary Network Name (SSID): Enter a Network Name (between 1 and 32 characters long) for the
wireless network. You must configure each wireless client to use this name as well.
— Additional Network Names (SSIDs): The AP supports up to 16 SSIDs and VLANs per wireless interface
(radio). Refer to the Advanced Configuration chapter for information on the detailed rules on configuring
multiple SSIDs, VLANs, and security modes.
— Auto Channel Select: By default, the AP scans the area for other Access Points and selects the best
available communication channel, either a free channel (if available) or the channel with the least amount
of interference. Remove the check mark to disable this option.
— Frequency Channel: When Auto Channel Select is enabled, this field is read-only and displays the
Access Point's current operating channel. When Auto Channel Select is disabled, you can specify the
Access Point's channel. If you decide to manually set the unit's channel, ensure that nearby devices do
not use the same frequency. Available Channels vary based on regulatory domain. See
Frequencies.
— Transmit Rate: Select a specific transmit rate for the AP. The values available depend on the
Operational Mode. Auto Fallback is the default setting; it allows the AP to select the best transmit rate
based on the cell size.
— For 802.11b only -- Auto Fallback, 1, 2, 5.5, 11 Mbits/sec
— For 802.11g only -- Auto Fallback, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54 Mbits/sec
— For 802.11b/g and 802.11g-wifi-- Auto Fallback, 1, 2, 5.5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54 Mbits/sec
