strong central main lobe and smaller side lobes. The object of the
alignment process is to set the antenna so that it is receiving the
strongest signal from the central main lobe.
To align the antennas in the link using the RSSI output voltage,
start with one antenna fixed and then perform the following
procedure on the other antenna:
Note:
The RSSI output can be configured through management
interfaces to output a value for specific WDS ports. See page
6-54 for more information.
