Station Name
The station name is a unique name that provides information about that particular station. Usually
the station user's name, or a name describing the function of the desk where the station is located,
is used to make it easier for others to identify the station on various screens. Maximum length is 12.
Subnet ID
The Subnet ID is a network group's password. This ID allows all users with the same ID to communi-
cate with one another and share resources. Users with a different Subnet ID will not be able to com-
municate (unless they change their Subnet ID). Maximum length is 4.
Station to use as Access Point
Clear the checkbox next to Automatic, and use the drop down box to select a Static Access Point.
Warning: If that Access Point goes down, the current station can not access the wired net-
work. Leave the box checked to have the station automatically choose the best Access Point.
