A Field Office Example

He does not change the Antenna Diversity setting, Short Preamble setting, the RTS Threshold, or the Beacon Settings. These parameters control some of the broadcast mechanics of an 802.11 communication between mobile units and Access Ports. In most cases, there is no reason to change them. He clicks Apply to save his choices.

After configuring the default Access Port settings, Leo gets four short 100baseT cables and connects the four Access Ports to the switch. Just to make it easier to remember which port is which, he connects the one with the lowest MAC address to the first port number, the next lowest MAC address to the next port, and so on.

He clicks the “+” to the left of Access Ports in the left menu and selects the menu item labeled “AP1”. The WS 2000 switch has found and queried the Access Port for its MAC address. Leo enters a new name for the Access Port, “Eng-AP1,” and its location, “Eng. Offices."
