Chapter 4: Configuring the Radios

Table 34. 802.11b Radio Advanced Parameter Descriptions (Continued)

Parameter	Description
Enable Load	Determines if end devices can distribute their
Balancing	connections across multiple access points.
Enable Medium	Determines if these access point parameters—
Density Distribution	Enable Medium Reservation, Distance Between
	APs, Enable Microwave Oven Robustness—are
	distributed to end devices that support this
	feature.
Data/Voice	Choose the setting that optimizes the wireless
Settings	network:
(Master radio only)	Data Traffic Only: The access point transmits
	only data traffic.
	Data and SpectraLink Traffic: The access point
	transmits both data and voice traffic. SpectraLink
	telephone frames are sent in the high priority
	queue. Frames in the high priority queue are sent
	ahead of frames in the normal priority queue. No
	special filtering.
	SpectraLink Traffic Only: The access point
	transmits only voice traffic. SpectraLink
	telephone frames are sent with a priority setting.
	All other multicast/broadcast frames are dropped.
Disallow SSID	Determines if end devices that have their SSID
(Network Name) of	(Network Name) set to ANY or are left blank can
‘ANY’	associate with this radio.
(Master radio only)	Clear this check box to allow these end devices
	to associate with this radio. Although this setting
	is 802.11 compliant, it is not very secure.
	Check this check box to prevent end devices with
	an SSID of ANY or are left blank from associating
	with this radio.
DTIM Period	Specifies the number of beacon frames to skip
(Master radio only)	before including a DTIM (delivery traffic indication
	message) in a beacon frame. Setting a higher
	DTIM period may conserve battery life in an end
	device, but it may increase response time.
