Intel 2011B - PRO/Wireless LAN Enterprise Access Point Configuration Manual page 9

After the wireless network is running, observe the WLAP ID from the WLAP RF Statistics screen.
Display this screen by pressing
WLAP Manual BSS ID
Intel recommends that you set the WLAP Manual BSS ID to its own MAC address. An example is
shown in Figure 1-3. This causes the access point to go directly to the Functional state and therefore
reduces the time required to begin the wireless connection. The Functional state is described in
section 3.3.1: Functional State.
