Figure 3-5. General Info Tab
•1 Firmware - The current firmware version.
•2 Hardware - The current hardware version.
•3 System Name - The name of the selected unit.
•4 Location - Location of the selected unit.
•5 MAC Address - MAC address of the selected unit.
•6 BSS Address - In the RB-DS.11, this defines the BSS address (the BU-DS.11 that the unit is
associated with). In the BU-DS.11, it defines the MAC address of the unit.
Note: You can select a unit's address either by selecting the address from the list, or typing it directly.
3.1.5 WLAN Parameters Tab
Figure 3-6. WLAN Parameters Tab
•1 ESSID - An ASCII string of up to 32 characters used to identify a WLAN that prevents the
unintentional merging of two co-located WLANs. It is essential that the ESSID is set to the
same value in all stations and Wireless Base Stations in the extended WLAN. The ESSID field
is case-sensitive.
•2 Channel - Select that the unit will use by selecting a value (range: 1-14) from the pulldown
menu. Refer to Table 3-1 for the list of corresponding frequencies. When the RB-DS.11 unit
will power up, it will automatically change channels, search for the BU-DS.11 unit and
synchronize with it; there is therefore no need for channel assignment. Once the channel on
the RB-DS.11 is assigned, it will no longer change channels automatically.
Note: The channel selection must match the selection at the other side of the link.
