3. Review and provide the following information in the Settings area. Devices with dual radios display radio-specific
settings in the Slot A and Slot B area. If a device is dual-radio capable but only has one device installed, AirWave
manages that device as if it were a single slot device.
NOTE: Devices from different vendors have different RF settings and capabilities. The fields in the Settings section of the APs/Devices
> Manage page are context-sensitive and only present the information relevant for the particular device vendor and model.
