11.The following read-only information is displayed:
MAC Address The Base Radio MAC is the radio's first MAC address when it is adopted by the Switch.
Radio Type Radio type identifies whether the radio is an 802.11b, 802.11bg and 802.11bgn or
802.11a and 802.11an radio.
Config Method The Config Method displays whether the radio has been configured using static or dynamic
settings.

An Access Port can be set for Indoors or Outdoors use depending on the model and the placement location. Power
settings and channel selection options differ based on each country's regulatory rules and whether or not the unit is
placed indoors or outdoors.
Channel Width is the distance between two channels in the same frequency. This difference is measured in MHz. For
type 'an' channels, the channel width is either 20 MHz or 40 MHz. For type 'bgn' channels, the width is 20 MHz. This
field is read-only and is available only with type 'n' radios.
Desired Channel (sec)
radio of an AP having multiple radios. The selection of a channel determines the available power levels. The range of
legally approved communication channels varies depending on the installation location and country. The selected
channel can be a specific channel, Random, or ACS. Random assigns each radio a random channel. ACS (Automatic
Channel Selection) allows the switch to systematically assign channels. Default is Random.Select a channel for
communications between the Access Port and its associated MUs within the
The channel for communication between the Access Port and its associated MUs can be using the primary radio or the
secondary radio of an AP. Accordingly the channel is called
respectively.The selection of a channel determines the available power levels. The range of legally-approved
communication channels varies depending on the installation location and country. The selected channel can be a
specific channel, "Random," or "ACS." Random assigns each radio a random channel. ACS (Automatic Channel
Selection) allows the switch to systematically assign channels. Default is Random.
14.After first selecting a channel, select a power level in dBm for RF signal strength in the
The optimal power level for the specified channel is best determined by a site survey prior to installation. Available
settings are determined according to the selected channel. Set a higher power level to ensure RF coverage in WLAN
environments that have more electromagnetic interference or greater distances between the Access Port and MUs.
Decrease the power level according to the proximity of other Access Ports. Overlapping RF coverage may cause lost
packets and problems for roaming devices trying to connect to an Access Port. After setting a power level, channel,
and placement the RF output power for the Access Port is displayed in mW. The default is 20 dBm (802.11bg), 17 dBm
(802.11a).
NOTE: After setting a power level, channel, and placement, the RF output power for the
Access Port displays in mW.
15.Antenna Gain relates the intensity of an antenna in a given direction to the intensity that would be produced by a
hypothetical antenna that radiates equally in all directions and has no losses.
16.Radio-Mode displays the radio operating mode.
NOTE: This field is available only with AP 7131, AP 7181, and AP 650.
