3.5.1. Translation Mode (read-only)
The translation of Ethernet packets can be enabled (default) or disable.
3.5.2. Roaming (read-only)
The Roaming menu contains parameters related to when and how the unit
roams from one AP to another. The following windows can be accessed
from the Roaming menu:
• Max. Number of Scanning
• Roaming Decision Window
• Roaming Decision Numerator
• Roaming Decision RSSI Threshold – At what signal strength the unit
roams to another AP
• Joining Decision RSSI Threshold – At what signal strength the unit
associates with an AP
• Number of Beacons for Disconnect Decision
• Number of Probe Responses
• Neighboring Beacon Rate
•• Neighboring AP‘s – Currently known number of AP‘s
3.5.3. Performance
The Performance menu contains parameters regarding unit performance:
• Dwell Time (AP Only) – The time spent on a radio channel before
hopping to the next channel in the sequence. The default value is 128ms.
• RTS Threshold (read-only) – Minimum packet size to require an RTS.
For packets smaller than this threshold, an RTS packet is not sent and
the packet is transmitted directly to the WLAN. The threshold is 120
bytes. A station wanting to transmit a packet, first transmits a short
control packet called RTS (Request To Send), which includes the
source, destination, and the duration of the following transaction (i.e. the
packet and the respective ACK). The destination station responds (if the
medium is free) with a response control Packet called CTS (Clear to
Send), which includes the same duration information.
• Max. Number of Re-Transmissions (read-only) – If a packet was
received with errors or not received at all, the station will not transmit an
ACK (acknowledgement) packet. The station that initiated the first
transmission will try to re-transmit the packet. The number of times the
