Table 3-18 11b Radio Hardware Settings (continued)

Field	Description
Data Beacon Rate (DTIM)	Enter the amount of time, always a multiple
	of the beacon period, to determine how often
	the beacon contains a delivery traffic
	indication message (DTIM).
	The DTIM tells power-save client devices
	that a packet is waiting for them.
	If the beacon period is set at 100, its default
	setting, and the data beacon rate is set at 2, its
	default setting, then the access point sends a
	beacon containing a DTIM every 200
	kilomicrosecond.
Default Radio Channel	From the list, select the radio channel you
	want for a default. Each channel covers 22
	MHz.
	The factory setting for Cisco wireless LAN
	systems is Radio Channel 6 transmitting at
	2437 MHz.
Search for less-congested Radio	From the list, select one of the following:
Channel?	• yes—Allows the access point to scan for
	the radio channel that is least busy and
	selects that channel for use.
	• no—Will not allow the access point to
	scan for a radio channel that is least busy.
