Mac_Optimize - Proxim RangeLAN2 752 Series Manual

However, if you do change it, then you will also need to change
the Security ID on all of the other RangeLAN2 devices in order
to reestablish communication between the devices.
The Security ID is a string of up to 20 alphanumeric characters.
There are 1,048,576 unique choices for the Security ID. The
default Security ID for all RangeLAN2 products is blank (an
empty string).
You may change the Security ID from within the Site Survey &
Configuration Tool or from within the RL2SETUP program.
Refer to Appendix B for more information on how to set the
Security ID.

MAC_Optimize

This parameter can help improve throughput for small networks.
If you have 8 or fewer wireless nodes communicating with a
RangeLAN2 7100 card configured as a Master, then set this
parameter to Light on the Master unit. (You can have more than
8 nodes synchronized to a RangeLAN2 Master but only 8 or
fewer communicating at the same time for the Light parameter
setting.) In networks with more than 8 concurrent wireless users,
set the parameter to Normal.
You need only set the MAC_Optimize parameter on a Master or
Alternate Master. Stations will ignore the parameter if it is set.
The MAC_Optimize settings for the DOS drivers are as follows:
Light
Normal
= 0
= 1
