1.
POINT-TO-POINT AND MULTI-CONNECT HOST
The Client List page of the Host AP shows the MAC address(s) of the paired or grouped Client SU(s)
that are connected to the Host AP. For Point-to-Point systems, one MAC address will be shown. For
Multi-connect systems, the Host AP will show all of the Client SU MAC addresses currently
connected. The
page will also
show the Mode,
Rate and RSSI
communication
information for
each connected
Client SU.

CLIENT
The Host AP List page shows the MAC address(s) and SSID of APs that the Client can see. It shows
the Frequency, Mode, Encryption Method and RSSI communication information. If an unknown SSID
appears, the Client is noticing another 802.11a non-proprietary AP within distance and frequency
range of the unit. This is designed to inform the user of frequencies that are occupied by other non-
proprietary 802.11a devices so as to transmit using a different available frequency. This is a useful
connection tool but it is not a comprehensive frequency analysis for the environment.

60% of over-head

the system.
