Chapter 8 Application Table 148 Radio List: Add LABEL DESCRIPTION RTS/CTS Threshold Use RTS/CTS to reduce data collisions on the wireless network if you have wireless clients that are associated with the same AP but out of range of one another. When enabled, a wireless client sends an RTS (Request To Send) and then waits for a CTS (Clear To Send) before it transmits. This stops wireless clients from transmitting packets at the same time (and causing data collisions). Fragmentatio n Threshold A wireless client sends an RTS for all packets larger than the number (of bytes) that you enter here. Set the RTS/CTS equal to or higher than the fragmentation threshold to turn RTS/CTS off. The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for directed messages. It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter an even number between 256 and 2346. Beacon Interval When a wirelessly networked device sends a beacon, it includes with it a beacon interval. This specifies the time period before the device sends the beacon again. The interval tells receiving devices on the network how long they can wait in low-power mode before waking up to handle the beacon. This value can be set from 80ms to 1000ms. A high value helps save current consumption of the access point. DTIM Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) is the time period after which broadcast and multicast packets are transmitted to mobile clients in the Active Power Management mode. A high DTIM value can cause clients to lose connectivity with the network. This value can be set from 1 to 255. Output Power Set the output power of the AP in this field. If there is a high density of APs in an area, decrease the output power of the AP to reduce interference with other APs. Select one of the following 100%(Full Power), 50%, 25%, or 12.5%. See the product specifications for more information on your NXC5200's output power. Note: Reducing the output power also reduces the NXC5200's effective broadcast radius. Rate Configuration This section controls the data rates permitted for clients. For each Rate, select a rate option from its list. The rates are: • Fast Select - Select an 802.11 broadcast frequency to determine the baseline rate configuration. • Basic Rate (Mbps) - Set the basic rate configuration in Mbps. • Support Rate (Mbps) - Set the support rate configuration in Mbps. • MCS Rate - Set the MCS rate configuration. MBSSID Settings This section allows you to associate an SSID profile with the radio profile. Edit Select and SSID and click this button to reassign it. The selected SSID becomes editable immediately upon clicking. SSID Profile Indicates which SSID profile is associated with this radio profile. OK Cancel Click OK to save your changes. Click Cancel to exit this screen without saving your changes. 8.7.12 SSID List The SSID list screen allows you to create and manage SSID configurations that can be used by the APs. An SSID, or Service Set IDentifier, is basically the name of the wireless network to which a wireless client can connect. The SSID appears as readable text to any device capable of scanning for wireless frequencies (such as the WiFi adapter in a laptop), and is displayed as the wireless network name when a person makes a connection to it. 278 ENC User's Guide

SSID List

The SSID list screen allows you to create and manage SSID configurations that can be used by the

APs. An SSID, or Service Set IDentifier, is basically the name of the wireless network to which a

wireless client can connect. The SSID appears as readable text to any device capable of scanning

for wireless frequencies (such as the WiFi adapter in a laptop), and is displayed as the wireless

network name when a person makes a connection to it.

RTS/CTS

Threshold

Use RTS/CTS to reduce data collisions on the wireless network if you have wireless clients

that are associated with the same AP but out of range of one another. When enabled, a

wireless client sends an RTS (Request To Send) and then waits for a CTS (Clear To Send)

before it transmits. This stops wireless clients from transmitting packets at the same time

(and causing data collisions).

A wireless client sends an RTS for all packets larger than the number (of bytes) that you

enter here. Set the RTS/CTS equal to or higher than the fragmentation threshold to turn

RTS/CTS off.

Fragmentatio

n Threshold

The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for directed messages. It

is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter an even number between

256

and

2346

Beacon

Interval

When a wirelessly networked device sends a beacon, it includes with it a beacon interval.

This specifies the time period before the device sends the beacon again. The interval tells

receiving devices on the network how long they can wait in low-power mode before

waking up to handle the beacon. This value can be set from 80ms to 1000ms. A high value

helps save current consumption of the access point.

DTIM

Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) is the time period after which broadcast and

multicast packets are transmitted to mobile clients in the Active Power Management mode.

A high DTIM value can cause clients to lose connectivity with the network. This value can

be set from 1 to 255.

Output Power

Set the output power of the AP in this field. If there is a high density of APs in an area,

decrease the output power of the AP to reduce interference with other APs. Select one of

the following

100%(Full Power)

50%

25%

, or

12.5%

. See the product specifications

for more information on your NXC5200’s output power.

Note: Reducing the output power also reduces the NXC5200’s effective broadcast radius.

Rate

Configuration

This section controls the data rates permitted for clients.

For each

Rate

, select a rate option from its list. The rates are:

•

Fast Select

- Select an 802.11 broadcast frequency to determine the baseline rate

configuration.

•

Basic Rate (Mbps)

- Set the basic rate configuration in Mbps.

•

Support Rate (Mbps)

- Set the support rate configuration in Mbps.

•

MCS Rate

- Set the MCS rate configuration.

MBSSID Settings

This section allows you to associate an SSID profile with the radio profile.

Edit

Select and SSID and click this button to reassign it. The selected SSID becomes editable

immediately upon clicking.
