Chapter 8 Wireless Table 82 Configuration > Object > AP Profile > Add/Edit Radio Profile (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Multicast Rate (Mbps) 5GHz General Settings 802.11 Band If you set the multicast transmission mode to fixed multicast rate, set the data rate for multicast traffic here. For example, to deploy 4 Mbps video, select a fixed multicast rate higher than 4 Mbps. Select how to let wireless clients connect to the AP. Channel Width • 11a: allows only IEEE 802.11a compliant WLAN devices to associate with the Zyxel Device. • 11a/n: allows both IEEE802.11n and IEEE802.11a compliant WLAN devices to associate with the Zyxel Device. • 11ac: allows IEEE802.11n, IEEE802.11a, and IEEE802.11ac compliant WLAN devices to associate with the Zyxel Device. If the WLAN device isn't compatible with 802.11ac, the Zyxel Device will communicate with the WLAN device using 802.11n, and so on. Select the channel bandwidth you want to use for your wireless network. Select 20 MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your neighborhood. Select 20/40 MHz to allow the Zyxel Device to choose the channel bandwidth (20 or 40 MHz) that has least interference. Select 20/40/80 MHz to allow the Zyxel Device to choose the channel bandwidth (20 or 40 or 80 MHz) that has least interference. This option is available only when you select 11ac or 11ax in the 802.11 Mode field. Channel Selection Note: If the environment has poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the Zyxel Device will switch to a lower bandwidth. Select the wireless channel which this radio profile should use. It is recommended that you choose the channel least in use by other APs in the region where this profile will be implemented. This will reduce the amount of interference between wireless clients and the AP to which this profile is assigned. Select DCS to have the AP automatically select the radio channel upon which it broadcasts by scanning the area around it and determining what channels are currently being used by other devices. Note: If you change the country code later, Channel Selection is set to Manual automatically. Output Power OK Cancel Select Manual and specify the channels the AP uses. Enter the maximum output power of the Zyxel Device. If there is a high density of APs in an area, decrease the output power of the Zyxel Device to reduce interference with other APs. Reducing the output power also reduces the Zyxel Device's effective broadcast radius. Click OK to save your changes back to the Zyxel Device. Click Cancel to exit this screen without saving your changes. ZyWALL ATP Series User's Guide 214
