Status
The Radio Status and the Detailed Status pages provide a summary of the current
radio interface configuration and statistics.
Table 18 - Radio Interface Configuration and Statistics Parameter Descriptions
Parameter Description
Configuration
Software Status Indicates whether the interface has been enabled or disabled by the operator.
Operational Rates The data rates (expressed in megabits per second) the device uses for data
transmission. The device always attempts to transmit at the highest rate selected. If
obstacles or interference occur, the device steps down to the highest rate that
enables data transmission.
Aironet Extensions If compatibility with non-Cisco/Aironet products is required, deselect Aironet
Extensions. Disabling this option limits several advanced features of the access point,
such as load balancing, MIC, and TKIP.
Carrier Set Indicates the regulatory domain that the access point is operating on. The carriers
sets constrain the frequencies and power levels available.
Current Radio Channel The current channel and frequency of the 802.11b, 802.11a, or 802.11g radio.
Transmitter Power The power level of the radio transmission. The default power setting is the highest
transmit power allowed in your regulatory domain.
Hardware Status Indicates whether the line protocol for the interface is up or down. Normally, if the
Software Status is enabled, the Hardware Status is up. An error condition occurs if the
Software Status is enabled and the Hardware Status is down.
Basic Rate Enables transmission at this rate for all packets, both unicast and multicast. At least
one data rate must be set as a basic rate.
