82 Configuring the XS-3900
Global Settings
This page allows you to establish global IAP (radio) settings. Global IAP settings
include enabling or disabling all radios (regardless of their operating mode),
auto-configuring channel allocations, enabling or disabling the Beacon World
Mode and EDCF, specifying the short and long retry limits, and defining the
beacon interval and DTIM period. Changes you make on this page are applied to
all IAPs (radios), without exception.

Procedure for Configuring Global IAP Settings
1. IAP Status: Click on the Enable All IAPs button to enable all radios for
this array, or click on the Disable All IAPs button to disable all radios.
2. Channel Configuration: Click on the Auto Configure button to instruct
the array to determine the best channel allocation settings for each radio
and select the channel automatically, based on changes in the
environment. This is the recommended method for channel allocations.
