Wireless configuration
Radio configuration
3-31
Multicast Tx rate
Not available in Monitor or Sensor modes.
Use this parameter to set the transmit rate for multicast and broadcast traffic. This is a fixed
rate, which means that if a station is too far away to receive traffic at this rate, the multicast
data may not be seen by the station.
Transmit power control
Not available in Monitor or Sensor modes.
Use these parameters to control the transmission power of the wireless radio.
Adjustments to the transmission power may be required for two reasons. First, when using an
optional external antenna, it may be necessary to reduce power levels to remain in
compliance with local regulations. Second, it may be necessary to reduce power levels to
avoid interference between APs and other radio devices.
Important
When using antennas not originally supplied with the AP, it is your responsibility to
ensure that the Transmit power control settings are configured so that the radio will
not exceed permissible power levels for the regulatory domain in which the AP is
operating. Depending on the regulatory domain, the specific antenna chosen, the wireless
mode, channel width, band or channel selected, you may need to configure the radio with
a reduced transmit power setting. When using
Automatic channel selection
with an
external antenna in the 2.4 GHz band, all channels must be set to the lowest acceptable
value for your regulatory domain.
For a list of supported antennas, see the Accessories section for your AP at
www.hp.com/networking/support (for Product Brand , select ProCurve) . For specific
power limits according to your regulatory domain, consult the Antenna Power-Level
Settings Guide also available at the same address.
For example, if you install an external 8 dBi directional antenna, and the maximum
allowed power level for your country is 15 dBm, you may have to reduce the transmit
power level to be in compliance.
If you change the antenna at a later time, you must get the latest version of the Antenna
Power-Level Settings Guide , and again reassess and possibly adjust radio power settings
according to the antenna used.
When setting
Transmit power control
to comply with information in the Antenna
Power-Level Settings Guide, always set radio power in dBm, and not as a percentage.
Maximum output power
Shows the maximum output power that can be supported by the radio based on the
regulatory domain.
