Description
Selecting this check box enables the client adapter to assume the legal
transmit power level and channel set of the access point to which it is
associated. This parameter is available only in infrastructure mode and is
designed for users who travel between countries because it allows the
adapter to be used in different regulatory domains.
Default: Deselected
Note When World Mode is enabled, only the transmit power levels
supported by the country of operation's regulatory agency are
available.
Enables or disables LEAP for your client adapter.
If you want to enable LEAP for your client adapter, you must select this
check box and set a username and password. Refer to the "LEAP" section
on page 4-11 for more information about LEAP and instructions on setting
a LEAP username and password.
This check box can also be used to disable or enable LEAP after
Note
it is enabled.
Default: Deselected
Enables or disables WEP for your client adapter.
• If you want to enable WEP for your client adapter, you must select this
check box and create a WEP key. Refer to the Chapter 4, "Security
Features" for more information on WEP and instructions on setting a
WEP key.
If you enable LEAP for your client adapter, this check box is selected
•
automatically.
Default: Deselected
If your network's access points are set to communicate with either
WEP-enabled or WEP-disabled clients (that is, if the Use of Data
Encryption by Stations parameter on the AP Radio Data Encryption screen
is set to Optional), you must select this check box, even if your client
adapter is not using WEP. If this setting is not enabled, your client adapter
cannot establish a connection with the access point.
Default: Deselected
For security reasons, Cisco recommends that both WEP-enabled
Note
and WEP-disabled clients not be allowed in the same cell
because broadcast packets will be sent unencrypted, even to
clients running WEP.
