Field Description
Select the value for the transmit power level for this access
Transmit
Power point:
The default value, which is Full, can be more cost-efficient
than a lower level since it gives the access point a maximum
broadcast range and reduces the number of access points
needed.
To increase capacity of the network, place access points
closer together and reduce the value of the transmit power.
This helps reduce overlap and interference among access
points. A lower transmit power setting can also keep your
network more secure because weaker wireless signals are
less likely to propagate outside of the physical location of
your network.
Select the multicast traffic transmission rate you want the
Fixed Multicast
Rate access point to support.
