that it sends to client devices. Other keys can be used for
decryption of data from clients.
• When using IEEE 802.1x, the access point uses a dynamic
WEP key to encrypt unicast and broadcast messages to
802.1x-enabled clients. However, because the access point
sends the WEP keys during the 802.1x authentication
process, these keys do not have to appear in the client’s
WEP key list.
Example
transmit-power
This command adjusts the power of the radio signals transmitted
from the access point.
Syntax

signal-strength - Signal strength transmitted from the access
point. (Options: full, half, quarter, eighth, min)
Default Setting
full

Command Usage
• The “min” keyword indicates minimum power.
• The longer the transmission distance, the higher the
transmission power required. But to support the maximum
number of users in an area, you must keep the power as low
as possible. Power selection is not just a trade off between
coverage area and maximum supported clients. You also
