Specifying The Wireless Technology For A Coverage Area - 3Com WX4400 Reference Manual

Go to "Specifying the Wireless Technology for a Coverage Area".

Specifying the Wireless Technology for a Coverage Area

(To draw a coverage area, see "Drawing a Coverage Area" on page 121.)
To specify wireless technology for a coverage area:
1 In the Technology list, select one of the following:
802.11a
802.11b
802.11g
802.11a and 802.11b
802.11a and 802.11g
Select 802.11a and 802.11b if the area requires 802.11a and
802.11b coverage. Select 802.11a and 802.11g if the area
requires 802.11a and 802.11g coverage.
When you specify a coverage area requiring different technologies,
3WXM creates two areas that completely overlap each other: one area
for 802.11a and another for 802.11b/g. An area requiring 802.11a and
802.11b uses a dual-radio MAP model for calculation even if you specify
a single-radio MAP.
2 To refine the dimensions of the coverage area, specify the appropriate
dimension in the X-Length and Y-Length boxes.
3 Click Next.
The wizard presents properties and association pages for the technology
you chose in step 1. The following example shows the wizard for 802.11a
and 802.11g technologies.
