Radio Interface
BreezeMAX Wi² and BreezeACCESS Wi² System Manual 81
4.4 Radio Interface
The 802.11g interface includes configuration options for radio signal
characteristics and wireless security features. The configuration options are
nearly identical, and are therefore both covered in this section of the manual.
The radio supports up to four virtual AP (VAP) interfaces numbered 0 to 3. Each
VAP functions as a separate AP, and can be configured with its own Service Set
Identification (SSID) and security settings. However, most radio signal parameters
apply to all four VAP interfaces.
The VAPs function similar to a VLAN, with each VAP mapped to its own VLAN ID.
Traffic to specific VAPs can be segregated based on user groups or application
traffic. Each VAP can have up to 64 wireless clients, whereby the clients associate
with these VAPs the same as they would with a physical AP.
4.4.1 Radio Settings G (802.11g)
The IEEE 802.11g standard operates within the 2.4 GHz band at up to 54 Mbps.
Also note that because the IEEE 802.11g standard is an extension of the IEEE
802.11b standard, it allows clients with 802.11b wireless network cards to
associate to an 802.11g access point.
First configure the radio settings that apply to the individual VAPs (Virtual Access
Point) and the common radio settings that apply to all of the 802.11g interfaces.
After you have configured the radio settings, go to the Security page under the
802.g Interface (see “Security” on page 4-98.), enable the radio service for any of
the VAP interfaces, and then set an SSID to identify the wireless network service
provided by each VAP. Remember that only clients with the same SSID can
associate with a VAP.
NOTE
802.11g is backward compatible with 802.11b. The 802.11g interface is configured independently
under the Radio Interface G: 802.11b/g web pages.
NOTE
The radio channel settings for the AP are limited by local regulations, which determine the number
of channels that are available. Refer to
“Specifications” on page 4 for additional information on
the maximum number channels available.
