You can use advanced mode configuration to change these settings. See
Chapter 4: Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs).
Specific Radio Configurations
The radio adoption default configuration acts as a template for all adopted RP
radios. However, many situations could require different settings for different
RP radios. For example, you might install an external antenna on an RP, so
you must configure a different antenna mode and power for it. You might want
a radio in one area to support only the higher data rates of 802.11g, but a radio
in another area, which includes 802.11b stations, to operate in mixed mode.
Or, you might want to dedicate a single RP as a detector.
In such circumstances, you can configure settings that apply only to a partic-
ular radio or radios. The module then deploys this new configuration to the
targeted radios.
Note You can target an RP radio for override settings only if the RP has been
detected by the Wireless Edge Services xl Module, although the RP does not
actually have to be adopted. When the RP is adopted, the module sends the
override configuration to its radio, rather than the radio adoption default
configuration. A radio configured before the RP is adopted is said to have a
static index type. Radios adopted with the default configuration have a
dynamic index type.
