SSID
Broadcasts
Click to enable or disable the SSID Broadcasts
feature: If disabled, the Outdoor AP will:
• Blocks a connection request from a station
without the correct SSID.
• Hides the SSID in outgoing beacon frames.
A site-survey tool will not find the SSID.
Transmission
Rate Sets the transmission rate at which data packets are
transmitted by the Outdoor AP. In high-interference
environments a lower rate can increase overall
transmission speed by reducing resends of lost
packets.
Basic Rates
This value determines the basic rates used and
reported for this BSS by the Outdoor AP. The highest
rate specified is the rate that the Outdoor AP will use
when transmitting broadcast/multicast and
management frames. Available options are:
• 1 and 2 Mbps
• All (1, 2, 5.5, and 11 Mbps)
Channel
Number You can change the channel number from here.
Refer to “Regulatory Domains and Channels” on page
51 for channels supported in each regulatory domain.
If the “Automatically” option is selected, the access
point can choose an available radio channel
automatically.
Aging Timer
(seconds) The expiration time for WLAN station without
activity.
Regulatory
Domain Identifies the country where the Outdoor AP is used.
Each country has defined its available channel
numbers and transmission power (see “Regulatory
Domains and Channels”).
Important:
In a multiple cell network topology, overlapping and/or adjacent cells using different
channels can operate simultaneously without interference if the difference between
the center frequencies is at least 30 MHz. For example, channels 1, 7, and 13 are
non-overlapping frequency channels.
