Wireless LAN Array
Configuring the XS-3900 87
2. 802.11b Data Rates: This task is similar to Step 1, but these data rates
apply only to 802.11b radios.
3. .11bg IAP Status: Click on the Enable 802.11b/g IAPs button to enable all
802.11b/g radios for this array, or click on the Disable 802.11b/g IAPs
button to disable all 802.11b/g radios.
4. Channel Configuration: Click on the Auto Configure button to instruct
the array to determine the best channel allocation settings for each
802.11b/g radio and select the channel automatically, based on changes
in the environment. This is the recommended method for 802.11b/g
channel allocations.
5. Fragmentation Threshold: This is the maximum size for directed data
packets transmitted over the 802.11b/g radio. Larger frames fragment
into several packets, their maximum size defined by the value you enter
here. Enter the desired Fragmentation Threshold value in this field,
between 256 and 2346).
6. RTS Threshold: The RTS (Request To Send) Threshold specifies the
packet size. Packets larger than the RTS threshold will use CTS/RTS prior
to transmitting the packet—useful for larger packets to help ensure the
success of their transmission. Enter a value between 1 and 2347.
7. Click on the Apply button to apply the new settings to this session.
8. Click on the Save button to save your changes (otherwise your new
settings will not take effect).
