802.11d Regulatory
Domain Support
Enabling support for IEEE 802.11d (World Mode) on the AP causes the AP to broadcast which
country it is operating in as a part of its beacons and probe responses. This allows client stations to
operate in any country without reconfiguration.
Disabling 802.11d prevents the country code setting from being broadcast in the beacons. However,
this only applies to radios configured to operate in the
g band (2.4 GHz band). For radios operating in
the
a band (5 GHz band), the AP software configures support for 802.11h. When 802.11h is
supported, the country code information is broadcast in the beacons.
To enable 802.11d regulatory domain support, click
Enabled
.
To disable 802.11d regulatory domain support, click
Disabled
.
IEEE 802.11h
Support
The Administration UI shows whether IEEE 802.11h regulatory domain control is in effect on the AP.
IEEE 802.11h cannot be disabled by an end user Administrator. For more information, see
“Using the
802.11h Wireless Mode” on page 42
.
IEEE 802.11h is a standard that provides two services required to satisfy certain regulatory domains
for the 5-GHz band. These two services are Transmit Power Control (TPC) and Dynamic Frequency
Selection (DFS).
Note:
The 802.11h mode is automatically enabled if the AP is configured to work in any country that
requires 802.11h as a minimum standard. This standard is currently only required by those countries
which fall into the European Telecommunications Standard Institute (ETSI) category. 802.11h is also
enabled for Japan.
Station Isolation
To enable station isolation, select the check box directly beside it.
When Station Isolation is
disabled
, wireless clients can communicate with one another normally by
sending traffic through the AP.
When Station Isolation is
enabled
, the AP blocks communication between wireless clients on the
same VAP. The AP still allows data traffic between its wireless clients and wired devices on the
network, across a WDS link, and with other wireless clients associated with a different VAP, but not
among wireless clients.
Radio Interface
Specify whether you want the radio interface on or off.
MAC Address
Indicates the Media Access Control (MAC) addresses for the interface.
This page shows the
MAC
addresses for Radio Interface One and Radio Interface Two.
A MAC address is a permanent, unique hardware address for any device that represents an interface
to the network. The MAC address is assigned by the manufacturer. You cannot change the MAC
address. It is provided here for informational purposes as a unique identifier for an interface.
Mode
The
Mode
defines the Physical Layer (
PHY
) standard the radio uses.
Note:
The modes available on your AP depend on the country code setting.
Select one of the following modes for each radio interface:
•
IEEE
802.11a
—
Only 802.11a clients can connect to the AP.
•
IEEE
802.11b/g
—
802.11b and 802.11g clients can connect to the AP.
•
IEEE
802.11a/n
—
802.11a clients and 802.11n clients operating in the 5-GHz frequency can
connect to the AP.
•
IEEE
802.11b/g/n (default)
—
802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n clients operating in the 2.4-GHz
frequency can connect to the AP.
•
5 GHz IEEE 802.11n—Only 802.11n clients operating in the 2.4-GHz frequency can connect to the
AP.
•
2.4 GHz IEEE 802.11n—Only 802.11n clients operating in the 5-GHz frequency can connect to the
AP.
