Using the Terminal Configurator
50
■
transmit rate
This parameter controls the data rate at which the radio transmits.
Legal values are: 1, 2, 5, and 11.
■
antenna diversity
This parameter controls antenna diversity. The wireless bridge
has only a single antenna, so this parameter should always be kept at its default value
of
no
.
■
enable encryption
This parameter indicates whether WEP encryption by the radio
is desired or not. Setting of the various encryption options is done in the [encryption]
section.
[encryption]
This section contains the configuration parameters that are used when encryption is
enabled. If encryption is not enabled, these parameters have no effect on the wireless
bridge operation.
■
transmit key
This value sets which of the following keys are used to encrypt
transmitted data. The default setting for this value is
1
.
■
encryption key 1-4
This value is one of the keys to use for encrypting and
decrypting data on the radio. The key should be specified as either a 10-digit or a
26-digit hexadecimal number. Note that the number should always have a 0x before
the hexadecimal digits. Use 10 digits for a 64-bit key, and 26 digits for a 128-bit key.
[rmp]
This section contains only a single low-level configuration parameter.
■
ethertype
This value should be changed only if requested by
3Com Technical Support.
[bootp]
This section contains parameters to configure and enable bootp for the wireless bridge.
You can configure the wireless bridge to determine its IP information from a bootp server.
When enabled, the wireless bridge attempts to get its IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway
information from the bootp server.
■
enable bootp
This parameter should be set to
Yes
to enable bootp. Default value
is
No
.
■
server ip address
This parameter should be set to force the wireless bridge to get
bootp information from a specific server. Using the default value causes the wireless
bridge to broadcast the requests to all available servers.
■
server name
This parameter has no impact on the operation of the wireless bridge
bootp function, and is simply copied into the bootp messages. If your server requires a
server name in bootp requests, then enter that name here.
■
server port
This parameter specifies the port on which the bootp server is listening.
It is unlikely that you should ever have to change this setting.
■
host port
This parameter specifies the port from which the wireless bridge makes
the bootp request. It is unlikely that you should ever have to change this setting.
