Wireless Global Configuration
Country Code: Select the country code that represents the country where your
controller and APs operate. Make sure you select the correct country code so that your
WLAN system complies with the regulations in your country.

Changing the country code disables and re -enables the controller. Any
channel and radio mode settings that are invalid for the regulatory domain
are reset to the default values. The country code (IEEE 802.11d) is
transmitted in beacons and probe responses from the access points.
Wireless Default Radio Configuration
AP Profile Name: AP Profile Name can be alphanumeric identifier that can contain a
maximum of 32 characters. This profile name is associated to default profile 1.
State: Here the admin indicates whether to enable or disable the radio. If us er turns
off a radio, the AP sends disassociation frames to all the wireless clients it is currently
supporting so that the radio can be gracefully shutdown and the clients can start the
association process with other available APs.
Mode (802.11a/n): The Mode defines the Physical Layer (PHY) standard the radio uses.
Select one of the following modes for radio interface.

IEEE 802.11a is a PHY standard that specifies operating in the 5 GHz U -NII
band using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). It supports data
rates ranging from 6 to 54 Mbps.

IEEE 802.11a/n operates in the 5 GHz ISM band and includes support for both
802.11a and 802.11n devices. IEEE 802.11n is an extension of the 802.11
standard that includes multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology. IEEE
802.11n supports data ranges of up to 248 Mbps and nearly twice the indoor range
of 802.11 b, 802.11g, and 802.11a
