Device Name: Specify the device name, which is composed of no more than 15 characters with
(0-9), (A-Z), (a-z) or (-).
Network Mode: Specify the network mode, including Bridge and Router. It is easy to configure
parameters in Bridge Mode; however, users must pay extra attention to the way they configure
the device when it is set to Router Mode. For details, please refer to TCP/IP Settings”.
Ethernet Data Rate: Specify the transmission rate of data for Ethernet. Default is Auto.
Country Region: The availability of some specific channels and/or operational frequency bands
is country dependent.
Spanning Tree: Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a link management protocol for AP which
provides path redundancy while preventing loops in a network. STP allows only one active path
at a time between the access points but establish the redundant link as a backup if the initial link
fails.
STP Forward Delay: STP Forward Delay is the time spent in detecting and learning network tree
topology state before entering the forward state. Default time value is 1 sec.

Figure 16 IP Settings (Bridge)
Obtain IP Address Automatically: If a DHCP server exists in your network, you can check this
option, thus the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Outdoor CPE is able to obtain IP settings
automatically from that DHCP server.
