Physical Interface Type: For an 802.11a AP, this field reports: "802.11a (OFDM 5 GHz)." OFDM stands for
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing; this is the name for the radio technology used by 802.11a devices.
•
MAC Address: This is a read-only field that displays the unique MAC (Media Access Control) address for the
Access Point's wireless interface. The MAC address is assigned at the factory.
•
Regulatory Domain: Reports the regulatory domain for which the AP is certified. Not all features or channels are
available in all countries. The available regulatory domains include:
— FCC - U.S./Canada, Mexico, and Australia
— ETSI - Europe and the United Kingdom
— TELEC: Japan
— SG: Singapore
— ASIA: China and South Korea
— TW: Taiwan and Hong Kong
•
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.
•
Auto Channel Select: The AP scans the area for other Access Points and selects a free or relatively unused
communication channel. This helps prevent interference problems and increases network performance. By default
this feature is enabled. See
802.11a Channel Frequencies
for a list of Channels.
