set radio-profile preamble-length

Changes the preamble length for which an 802.11b/g DWL-8220AP radio advertises support. This command does not apply to 802.11a.

Syntax: set radio-profile name preamble-length {long short}

name

Radio profile name.

long

Advertises support for long preambles.

short

Advertises support for short preambles.

Defaults: The default is short.

Access: Enabled.

Usage: Changing the preamble length value affects only the support advertised by the radio. Regardless of the preamble length setting (short or long), an 802.11b/g radio accepts and can generate 802.11b/g frames with either short or long preambles.

If a client associated with an 802.11b/g radio uses long preambles for unicast traffic, the DWL- 8220AP access point still accepts frames with short preambles but does not transmit frames with short preambles. This change also occurs if the access point overhears a beacon from an 802.11b/g radio on another access point that indicates the radio has clients that require long preambles.

You must disable all radios that use a radio profile before you can change parameters in the profile. Use the set radio-profile mode command.

Examples: The following command configures 802.11b/g radios that use the radio profile rp_ long to advertise support for long preambles instead of short preambles:

DWS-1008# set radio-profile rp_long preamble-length long success: change accepted.
