Multiple-Channel Configuration
You can alternate the frequency channels of your Base Stations between three
or more sub-channels (depending on local radio regulations that apply in your
country).
Figure 6-28: Multiple Channel Configuration
For example, looking at Figure 6-5, to set up a three channel system you could
configure the Base Stations as follows:
! All Base Stations identified as operating on channel A would use channel 1
(2412 MHz)
! All Base Stations identified as operating on channel B would use channel 6
(2437 MHz),
! All Base Stations identified as operating on channel C would use channel 11
(2462 MHz)
This would just meet the minimum channel separation of 25 MHz for
neighboring Base Stations that is recommended for optimal operation.
A station roaming from location X to location Y would automatically switch its
radio consecutively from channel A, B to C to remain connected to the
network.
In that case, you must assign different frequency channels to each card (with a
separation of 25 MHz or more) to avoid cross-talk between the two cards.
Configuring Channel Frequency
To change the frequency of your Base Station, proceed as follows:
1. Connect to the Base Station by opening the AP Manager, selecting the target
Base Station, and click the
Edit button.
2. Select the
Wireless Interfaces tab.
