Wireless Interface Parameters

The wireless interface group parameter is wif. For Single-radio APs, the wireless interface uses table index 3.

	Antenna Diversity	Integer	1	(Antenna 1),	RW	atdiversity
			2	(Antenna 2),
			5	(Auto; both antennas)(See
			Configure Antenna Diversity)

*For 802.11a APs certified in the ETSI regulatory domain 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
Mini	25		-70		53		-42
Micro	33		-62		59		-36
