Wireless Interface Parameters

The wireless interface group parameter is wif. Wireless Interface A (802.11a radio) uses table index 3 and Wireless Interface B (802.11b/g radio) uses table index 4.

Common Parameters to 802.11a/b/g

	Name	Type		Value	Access	CLI Parameter
	Wireless Interfaces	Group	N/A		R	wif
	Table Index	Integer	3	(Wireless Interface A) or 4	R	index
			(Wireless Interface B)
	Network Name	DisplayString	1	- 32 characters	RW	netname
			My Wireless Network (default)
	Auto Channel Select (ACS)*	Integer	enable (default)		RW	autochannel
			disable
	DTIM Period	Integer	1 - 255		RW	dtimperiod
			1	= default
	RTS/CTS Medium	Integer	0	- 2347	RW	medres
	Reservation		Default is 2347 (off)
	MAC Address	PhyAddress	12 hex digits		R	macaddr
	Closed System	Integer	enable		RW	closedsys
			disable (default)

	Antenna Diversity§		5	(microcell)	RW	atdiversity
	Antenna Diversity§	Integer	1	(Antenna 1),	RW	atdiversity
			2	(Antenna 2),
			3	(Antenna 3),§
			4	(Antenna 4),
			5	(Auto; both antennas on
			radio)
			(See Configure Antenna
			Diversity)
	AP Link Length**	Integer	200 (default) - 15000		RW	aplinklength

*For 802.11a APs certified in the ETSI and TELEC regulatory domains and operating in the middle frequency band, disabling Auto Channel Select will limit the available channels to those in the lower frequency band.

†Wireless Service Status cannot be shut down on an interface where Rogue Scan is enabled.

‡Distance Between APs allows the AP to perform better in high noise environments by increasing the recieve sensitivity and transmit defer threshold, as follows:

Distance Between		Receive Sensitivity Threshold				Transmit Defer Threshold
APs		Value		dBm		Value	dBm
Large	0		-96		33		-62
Medium	9		-86		33		-62
Small	17		-78		43		-52
