IEEE 802.11 Direct Sequence Radio Parameters Menu
Regulatory Domain
The regulatory domain value identifies the regulatory body’s country code for the
RF regulations with which the radio complies. For the USA, the regulatory body is
the FCC, for Canada it's Industry Canada, and for Europe it's ETSI. The hex value in
brackets beside the name is the code (as specified in the IEEE 802.11b standard) for
that domain. The country codes that are decoded into a name are listed below. For
other country codes the name portion will be replaced with “Unknown”.
Fixed Multicast Rate
This parameter allows you to choose the multicast rate of the installed 802.11, 2.4
GHz TRX7431 radio.
The allowable values for TRX7431 are: Auto, 1, 2, 5.5, or 11Mb/s.
If Auto is chosen, the rate will automatically be set to the radio card’s default
multicast rate.
WEP Implemented on the card
This parameter shows whether the radio card installed on the 9150 supports the
Wired-Equivalent Privacy feature, referred to as WEP. This feature allows you to
encrypt radio traffic to prevent electronic eavesdropping. WEP is available in either
64-bit or 128-bit encryption for the TRX7431 radio. If WEP is not implemented by
the radio card, the WEP parameters are non-functional.
The allowable values are Yes or No, and cannot be changed.
