Setting the WLAN's Radio Configuration

Each access point WLAN can have a separate 802.11a/n or 802.11b/g/n radio configured and mapped
to that WLAN. This enables each WLAN to optimize its radio configuration in respect to its intended
client needs.
The Access Point displays one of three different radio configuration pages depending on which model
SKU is purchased. The Radio Configuration screen enables you to configure one radio for 802.11a/n use
and the other for 802.11b/g/n (no other alternatives exist for the dual-radio model).
The Altitude 4750 model Access Point is available in a three-radio model. The third Altitude 4750 radio
is never a WLAN radio. The third radio is either disabled or set to WIPS mode depending on the radio
configuration option selected from the Quick Setup screen. With the three-radio Altitude 4750 model, a
third tab (Radio 3) has been added to the Radio Configuration screen. All of the other WLAN
configurable elements available in either of the Radio 1 and Radio 2 tabs have been removed from the
Radio 3 tab as they do not apply to WIPS support.
NOTE
The WIPS Server designation and radio configuration is set as part of the Access Point's quick setup. For
more information on the quick setup configuration and how to define WIPS radio support, see
