DESCRIPTION
This is the Service Set IDentification name of the AP in an Infrastructure
wireless network or wireless station in an Ad-Hoc wireless network. For our
purposes, we define an Infrastructure network as a wireless network that
uses an AP and an Ad-Hoc network (also known as Independent Basic Service
Set (IBSS)) as one that doesn't. See the chapter on wireless configuration for
more information on basic service sets (BSS) and extended service sets
(ESS).
This field displays the MAC address of the AP in an Infrastructure wireless
network. It is randomly generated (so ignore it) in an Ad-Hoc wireless
network.
This is the index number of the channel currently used by the associated AP in
an Infrastructure wireless network or wireless station in an Ad-Hoc wireless
network.
This is the IEEE 802.1x standard used by your NWA to apply enhanced
security methods for both the authentication of wireless stations and
encryption key management.
This field displays the strength of the AP's signal. If you must choose a
channel that is currently in use, choose one with low signal strength for
minimum interference.
