Using the HotView software the mesh administrator is provided a selection of operating modes (e.g., 2.4
GHz DSSS, 2.4 GHZ OFDM, 5.2 GHz OFDM, 5.3 GHz OFDM, 5.8 GHz OFDM) along with a selection
of channels for that mode. In this way the administrator is only able to operate the mesh in full compliance
