25
and set the SubMask of the AP to 255.255.255.0.
Ethernet Mac Address
?
Don’t change it, as this will disable the AP.
Infrastructure
?
An integrated wireless and wired LAN is called an Infrastructure configuration.
PLCP
?
physical layer convergence protocol
PPDU
?
PLCP protocol data unit
Preamble Type
?
During transmission, the PSDU shall be appended to a PLCP preamble and header to create
the PPDU. Two different preambles and headers are defined : the mandatory supported long preamble and header
which interoperates with the current 1 and 2 Mbps DSSS specification as described in IEEE Std 802.11-1999, and
an optional short preamble and header. At the receiver, the PLCP preamble and header are processed to aid in
demodulation and delivery of the PSDU. The optional short preamble and header is intended for application where
maximum throughput is desired and interoperability with legacy and non-short preamble capable equipment is not
consideration. It is expected to only be used in networks of like equipment that can all handle the optional mode.
(IEEE 802.11b standard)
PSDU
?
PLCP service data unit
Roaming
?
A LAN mobile user moves around an ESS and enjoys a continuous connection to the Infrastructure
network.
RTS Threshold
?
Transmitters contending for the medium may not be aware of each other. RTS/CTS
mechanism can solve this “ Hidden Node Problem”. If the packet size is smaller than the preset RTS Threshold
size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will NOT be enabled.
WEP
?
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is an encryption scheme used to protect wireless data communication.
To enable the icon will prevent other stations without the same WEP key from linking with the AP.
