Configuring the Altitude AP
40MHz Prot. Channel Offset - Select a 20MHz channel offset if the deployment is using channels
that are 20MHz apart (for example, using channels 1, 5, 9, and 13) or a 25MHz channel offset if
the deployment is using channels that are 25MHz apart (for example, using channels 1, 6, and
11).
40MHz Channel Busy Threshold - Type the extension channel threshold percentage, which if
exceeded, will disable transmissions on the extension channel (40MHz).
Aggregate MSDUs - Click an aggregate MSDU mode: Enabled or Disabled. Aggregate MSDU
increases the maximum frame transmission size.
Aggregate MSDU Max Length - Type the maximum length of the aggregate MSDU. The value
range is 2290-4096 bytes.
Aggregate MPDUs - Click an aggregate MPDU mode: Enabled or Disabled. Aggregate MPDU
provides a significant improvement in throughput.
Aggregate MPDU Max Length - Type the maximum length of the aggregate MPDU. The value
range is 1024-65535 bytes.
Agg. MPDU Max # of Sub-frames - Type the maximum number of sub-frames of the aggregate
MPDU. The value range is 2-64.
14 ADDBA Support - Click an ADDBA support mode: Enabled or Disabled. ADDBA, or block
acknowledgement, provides acknowledgement of a group of frames instead of a single frame.
ADDBA Support must be enabled if Aggregate APDU is enable.

Modifying an Altitude AP's properties based on a
default AP configuration
If you have an Altitude AP that is already configured with its own settings, but would like the Altitude
AP to be reset to use the system's default AP settings, use the Reset to Defaults feature on the WAP
Properties tab.
To configure an Altitude AP with the system's default AP settings:
1 From the main menu, click Altitude AP Configuration. The Altitude APs page is displayed.
2 In the Altitude AP list, click the Altitude AP whose properties you want to modify. The WAP
Properties tab displays Altitude AP information.
3 To have the Altitude AP inherit the system's default AP settings, click Reset to Defaults. A pop-up
window asking you to confirm the configuration change is displayed.
4 To confirm resetting the AP to the default settings, click OK.
Modifying the Altitude AP's default setting using the
Copy to Defaults feature
You can modify the system's default AP settings by using the Copy to Defaults feature on the WAP
Properties tab. This feature allows the properties of an already configured AP to become the system's
default AP settings.
