Setup guide

• 5GHz-turbo - IEEE 802.11a up to 108Mbit
scan-list (multiple choice: integer | default-ism; default: default-ism) - the list of channels to scan
• default-ism - for 2.4GHz mode: 2412, 2417, 2422, 2427, 2432, 2437, 2442, 2447, 2452, 2457,
2462, 2467, 2472; for 5GHz mode: 5180, 5200, 5220, 5240, 5260, 5280, 5300, 5320, 5745,
5765, 5785, 5805; for 5GHz-turbo: 5210, 5250, 5290, 5760, 5800
burst-time (time; default: disabled) - time in microseconds which will be used to send data without
stopping. Note that other wireless cards in that network will not be able to transmit data for
burst-time microseconds. This setting is available only for AR5000, AR5001X, and AR5001X+
chipset based cards
fast-frames (yes | no; default: no) - whether to pack smaller packets into a larger one, which makes
larger data rates possible
dfs-mode (none | radar-detect | no-radar-detect; default: none) - used for APs to dynamically
select frequency at which this AP will operate
• none - do not use DFS
• no-radar-detect - AP scans channel list from "scan-list" and chooses the frequency which is
with the lowest amount of other networks detected
• radar-detect - AP scans channel list from "scan-list" and chooses the frequency which is with
the lowest amount of other networks detected, if no radar is detected in this channel for 60
seconds, the AP starts to operate at this channel, if radar is detected, the AP continues searching
for the next available channel which is with the lowest amount of other networks detected
supported-rates-a/g (multiple choice: 6Mbps, 9Mbps, 12Mbps, 18Mbps, 24Mbps, 36Mbps,
48Mbps, 54Mbps) - rates to be supported in 802.11a or 802.11g standard
basic-rates-a/g (multiple choice: 6Mbps, 9Mbps, 12Mbps, 18Mbps, 24Mbps, 36Mbps, 48Mbps,
54Mbps) - basic rates in 802.11a or 802.11g standard
supported-rates-b (multiple choice: 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, 11Mbps) - rates to be supported in
802.11b standard
basic-rates-b (multiple choice: 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, 11Mbps) - basic rates in 802.11b mode
ack-timeout (integer | dynamic | indoor) - acknowledgment code timeout (transmission acceptance
timeout) in microseconds or one of these:
• dynamic - ack-timeout is chosen automatically
• indoor - standard constant
tx-power (integer | default; default: default) - transmit power in dB
• default - default value of the card
default-authentication (yes | no; default: yes) - specifies the default action for clients or APs that
are not in access list
• yes - enables AP to register a client even if it is not in access list. In turn for client it allows to
associate with AP not listed in client's access list
default-forwarding (yes | no; default: yes) - to use forwarding by default or not
master-device (name) - physical wireless interface name that will be used by Virtual Access Point
(VAP) interface
noise-floor-threshold (integer | default: -128..127; default: default) - value in dBm below whcih
we say that it is rather noise than a normal signal
server-certificate - not implemented, yet
wds-default-bridge (name; default: none) - you can set the default bridge for WDS interface here.
You can also do it under '/interface bridge port' submenu.
wds-mode (disabled | dynamic | static) - WDS mode:
