11 Wireless LAN Controller
172
The number of channels you can select depends on the country setting. Please consult the
data sheet for your device.
Note
Configuring the network name (SSID) in Access Point mode means that wireless net-
works can be logically separated from each other, but they can still physically interfere
with each other if they are operating on the same or closely adjacent wireless chan-
nels. So if you are operating two or more radio networks close to each other, it is ad-
visable to allocate the networks to different channels. Each of these should be spaced
at least four channels apart, as a network also partially occupies the adjacent chan-
nels.
In the case of manual channel selection, please make sure first that the APs actually sup-
port these channels.
Transmit Power
Displays the transmission power in dBm. You can select another transmission power.
With OK you apply the settings.
Select the access points that your WLAN controller shall manage. In the Manage column,
click on the desired entries or click on Select all in order to select all entries. Click the
Deselect all button to disable all entries and to then select individual entries if required
(e.g. for large lists).
Click on Start in order to install the WLAN and automatically assign the frequencies.
Note
If there are not enough licences available, the message "The maximum number of
slave access points that can be supported has been exceeded". Please check your li-
cences. If this message is displayed then you should obtain additional licences if ap-
propriate.
During the installation of the WLAN and the allocation of frequencies, on the messages dis-
played you will see how far the installation has progressed. The display is continuously up-
dated.
Provided that non-overlapping wireless channels are located for all access points, the con-
figuration that is set in the Wizard is transferred to the access points.
When the installation is complete, you will see a list of the Managed access points.
