Channel does. Use a Subchannel if you need more than 15
Masters in the same area and have used all 15 Channels.
For example, you can use Channel 1, Subchannel 1 for Network
A and Channel 1, Subchannel 2 for Network B. The two net-
works will not communicate with one another. They are, how-
ever, still sharing the 1.6 Mbps pipe since they are both using
Channel 1.
The Subchannels are designated 1 through 15, and 1 is the default
setting.
You need only set the Subchannel on a Master or Alternate
Master. Stations will ignore the parameter if it is set.
Master_Name
optional
This optional parameter of up to 11 characters specifies an alpha-
numeric name to simplify the identification of each Master in your
network.
You need only set the Master_Name on a Master or Alternate
Master. Stations will ignore the parameter if it is set.
Security ID
To further improve the security of a wireless subnetwork, each
unit requires the same Security ID to establish communication.
The Security ID is used on all RangeLAN2 products and all
Station_Types.
This ID is encrypted and stored on the RangeLAN2 7100 card
itself, not in software. The Security ID cannot be accessed, but
you may change it.
