STEP  4

If you chose B/G/N-Mixed, N-Only, or G/N Mixed, in the 

Wireless Band Selection

 

field, select the wireless bandwidth on your network (

20MHz

 or 

20/40MHz

). If 

you chose N-Only, you must use WPA2 security on your network. See 

Configuring 

the Security Mode

.

STEP  5

In the 

Wireless Channel

 field, choose the wireless channel from the drop-down 

menu.

STEP  6

In the 

AP Management VLAN

 field, choose 

VLAN 1

 if you are using the default 

settings.

If you create additional VLANs, choose a value that corresponds with the VLAN 
configured on other switches in the network. This is done for security purposes. 
You might need to change the management VLAN to limit access to the device 
Device Manager.

STEP  7

(Optional) In the 

U-APSD (WMM Power Save)

 field, check 

Enable

 to enable the 

Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery (U-APSD) feature, also referred to as 
WMM Power Save, that allows the radio to conserve power.

U-APSD is a power-saving scheme optimized for real-time applications, such as 
VoIP, transferring full-duplex data over WLAN. By classifying outgoing IP traffic as 

Voice

 data, these types of applications can increase battery life by approximately 

25% and minimize transmit delays.

STEP  8

(Optional) Configure the settings of the four wireless networks (see 

Editing the 

Wireless Network Settings

). 

STEP  9

Click 

Save

.

B/G-Mixed

Choose this option if you have Wireless-B and 
Wireless-G devices in your network.

G/N-Mixed

Choose this option if you have Wireless-G and 
Wireless-N devices in your network.
