Radio Interface
The IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g interfaces include configuration
options for radio signal characteristics and wireless security
features. The configuration options are nearly identical, and are
therefore both covered in this section of the manual.
The access point can operate in four modes, IEEE 802.11a only,
802.11b & g, 802.11g only and 802.11b only. Also note that
802.11g is backward compatible with 802.11b. These interfaces
are configured independently under the following web pages:
•
Radio Interface 1: 802.11a
•
Radio Interface 2: 802.11b/g
Note:
The radio channel settings for the access point are limited by local
regulations, which determine the number of channels that are
available.
