Specifying the Wireless Technology for a Coverage Area

(To draw a coverage area, see “Drawing a Coverage Area” on page 114.) To specify wireless technology for a coverage area:

1In the Technology list, select one of the following:

„802.11a

„802.11b

„802.11g

„802.11a and 802.11b

„802.11a and 802.11g

Select 802.11a and 802.11b if the area requires 802.11a and 802.11b coverage. Select 802.11a and 802.11g if the area requires 802.11a and 802.11g coverage.

When you specify a coverage area requiring different technologies, 3WXM creates two areas that completely overlap each other: one area for 802.11a and another for 802.11b/g. An area requiring 802.11a and 802.11b uses a dual-radio MAP model for calculation even if you specify a single-radio MAP.
