2.Does the network contain only 900 MHz or S-UHF access points?

Answer Settings

Yes Inbound/Unicast/Disabled

Outbound to Secondaries/Unicast/Disabled

Comments:

Unicast flooding is never required for 900 MHz or S-UHF access points, since stations supporting these media options establish reliable connections as they roam between access points. The correct port for S-UHF or 900 MHz stations is always known.

3.Do all nodes in the radio network routinely transmit a frame at least once every 4 minutes?

Answer Settings

Yes Inbound/Unicast/Disabled

Outbound to Secondaries/Unicast/Disabled

4.Do any nodes in the radio network need to receive multicast or broadcast messages?

Answer Settings

No Inbound/Multicast/Enabled

Outbound to Secondaries/Multicast/Disabled

Note: TCP/IP nodes must receive broadcast ARP frames.

Comments:

The destination of a multicast frame is never known. The Disabled setting should be used for any network where stations do not need to receive multicast frames. The Disabled setting can be used for secondary LANs that only need to receive ARP frames. When WLIF wireless stations must receive multicast frames, set Outbound to Stations to Enabled.
