Modifying Wireless AP Settings

Summit WM20 User Guide, Software Release 4.2

●

Max TX Power Level

– For each radio, select the appropriate Tx power level from the

Max TX

Power Level

drop-down menu. The values in the

Max TX Power Level

drop-down is in dBm

(dBm is an abbreviation for the power ratio in decibel (dB) of the measured power referenced to
one milliwatt).

If Dynamic Radio Management (DRM) was enabled on the DRM screen, this

option is read-only.

●

RX Diversity

– For each radio, select

Alternate

for the best signal from both antennas, or

Left

Right

to choose either of the two diversity antennas. The default and recommended selection is

Alternate

. If only one antenna is connected, use the corresponding

Left

Right

diversity setting.

Do not use

Alternate

if two identical antennas are not used.

●

TX Diversity

– For each radio, select

Best

for the best signal from both antennas, or

Left

Right

to choose either of the two diversity antennas. The default selection is

Best

, which maximizes

performance for most clients. However, some clients may behave oddly with Tx Diversity set to

Best

. Under those circumstances, it is recommended to use either Left or Right for Tx Diversity. If

only one antenna is connected, use the corresponding

Left

Right

diversity setting. Do not use

Best

if two identical antennas are not used.

●

Operational Rate Set

– For each radio, select the data rate that clients can operate at while

associated with the AP:

5.5

, or

Mbps for 11b+11g modes and

, or

Mbps for 11a mode. The

Best data rate

allows the Wireless AP to select

the best data rate automatically.

●

Basic Rates

– Select the data rates that must be supported by all stations in a BSS:

5.5

and

Mbps.

●

Preamble

– Select a preamble type for 11b-specific (CCK) rates:

Short

Long

, or

Auto

. The

recommended value is

Auto

. Select

Short

if you are sure that there is no pre-11b AP or a client in

the vicinity of this AP. Select

Long

if compatibility with pre-11b clients is required.

●

Protection Mode

– Select a protection mode:

None

Auto

, or

Always

. The default and

recommended setting is

Auto

. Select

None

if 11b APs and clients are not expected. Select

Always

if you expect many 11b-only clients.

●

Protection Rate

– Select a protection rate:

5.5

, or

Mbps. The default and recommended

setting is

. Only reduce the rate if there are many 11b clients in the environment or if the

deployment has areas with poor coverage. For example, rates lower than

Mbps are required to

ensure coverage.

●

Protection Type

– Select a protection type:

CTS

Only

RTS CTS

. The default and

recommended setting is

CTS Only

. Select

RTS CTS

only if an 11b AP that operates on the same

channel is detected in the neighborhood, or if there are many 11b-only clients in the environment.

●

Min Basic Rate

– For both radios, select the minimum data rate that must be supported by all

stations in a BSS:

5.5

, or

Mbps for 11b and 11b+11g modes. Select

5.5

, or

Mbps for 11g-only mode. Select

, or

Mbps for 11a mode. If necessary, the

Max Basic Rate

choices adjust automatically to be higher or equal to the

Min Basic Rate

. If both

Min Basic Rate

and

Max Basic Rate

are set to an 11g-specific (OFDM) rate, (for example,

, or

Mbps) all

basic rates will be 11g-specific.

●

Max Basic Rate

– For both radios, select the maximum data rate that must be supported by all

stations in a BSS:

5.5

, or

Mbps for 11b and 11b+11g modes. Select

5.5

, or

Mbps for 11g-only mode. Select

, or

Mbps for 11a mode. If necessary, the

Max Basic Rate

choices adjust automatically to be higher or equal to the

Min Basic Rate

. If both

Min Basic Rate

and

Max Basic Rate

are set to an 11g-specific (OFDM) rate, (for example,

, or

Mbps) all

basic rates will be 11g-specific.

●

Max Operational Rate

– Select the maximum data rate that clients can operate at while

associated with the AP:

5.5

, or

Mbps for 11b-only mode. Select

5.5

, or

Mbps for 11b+11g or 11g-only modes. Select

, or

Mbps for 11a
