IMPORTANT
The Data Packet Encryption setting must be the same on all
Fluidmesh units that are part of the same network.
IMPORTANT
The AES feature must be enabled using a software plug-in
(Fluidmesh part number FM-AES). Contact your Fluidmesh
Networks representative for details.
NOTE
If Fluidmesh plug-in FM-AES is not installed, the
ENABLED drop-down option will not be available.
IMPORTANT
If too short a distance value is entered, unnecessary
packet re-transmissions may occur, degrading overall
link performance.
