Field Description
Mode The Mode denes the Physical Layer (PHY) standard the radio uses.
Note: The modes available depend on the country code setting and the radio selected.
Select one of the following modes for radio 1:
•) IEEE 802.11a is a PHY standard that species operating in the 5 GHz U-NII band
using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). It supports data rates
ranging from 6 to 54 Mbps.
•) IEEE 802.11a/n operates in the 5 GHz ISM band and includes support for both
802.11a and 802.11n devices. IEEE 802.11n is an extension of the 802.11 standard
that includes multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology. IEEE 802.11n
supports data ranges of up to 248 Mbps and nearly twice the indoor range of 802.11
b, 802.11g, and 802.11a.
•) 5 GHz IEEE 802.11n is the recommended mode for networks with 802.11n devices
that operate in the 5 GHz frequency that do not need to support 802.11a devices.
IEEE 802.11n can achieve a higher throughput when it does not need to be
compatible with legacy devices (802.11a).
Select one of the following modes for radio 2:
•) IEEE 802.11b/g operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. IEEE 802.11b is an enhancement
of the initial 802.11 PHY to include 5.5 Mbps and 11 Mbps data rates. It uses direct
sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) or frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS)
as well as complementary code keying (CCK) to provide the higher data rates. It
supports data rates ranging from 1 to 11 Mbps. IEEE 802.11g is a higher speed
extension (up to 54 Mbps) to the 802.11b PHY. It uses orthogonal frequency division
multiplexing (OFDM). It supports data rates ranging from 1 to 54 Mbps.
•) IEEE 802.11b/g/n operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and includes support for 802.11b,
802.11g, and 802.11n devices.
•) 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.11n is the recommended mode for networks with 802.11n devices
that operate in the 2.4 GHz frequency that do not need to support 802.11b/g
devices. IEEE 802.11n can achieve a higher throughput when it does not need to be
compatible with legacy devices (802.11b/g).
Channel Select the Channel.
The range of available channels is determined by the mode of the radio interface and the
country code setting. If you select Auto for the channel setting, the AP scans available
channels and selects a channel where no trafc is detected.
The Channel denes the portion of the radio spectrum the radio uses for transmitting and
receiving. Each mode offers a number of channels, depending on how the spectrum is
licensed by national and transnational authorities such as the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) or the International Telecommunication Union (ITU-R).
When automatic channel assignment is enabled on the Channel Management page for
Clustering, the channel policy for the radio is automatically set to static mode, and the Auto
option is not available for the Channel eld. This allows the automatic channel feature to set
the channels for the radios in the cluster.
Station Isolation To enable Station Isolation, select the check box directly beside it.
When Station Isolation is disabled, wireless clients can communicate with one another
normally by sending trafc through the AP.
When Station Isolation is enabled, the AP blocks communication between wireless clients
on the same radio and VAP. The AP still allows data trafc between its wireless clients and
wired devices on the network, across a WDS link, and with other wireless clients associated
with a different VAP, but not among wireless clients associated with the same VAP.
