Chapter 3 Configuring the Radio and Basic Settings
Radio Configuration
Note When you enable broadcast key rotation, only wireless client devices using LEAP
or EAP-TLS authentication can use the access point. Client devices using static
WEP (with open, shared key, or EAP-MD5 authentication) cannot use the access
point when you enable broadcast key rotation.
Advanced Primary SSID Setup
Go to this link to configure 802.11 authentication, EAP, Unicast address filters,
and the maximum number of associations for the radio’s primary SSID.
Specified Access Points
You use these fields to set up a chain of repeater access points (access points
without an Ethernet connection; see Figure 3-3). Repeater access points function
best when they associate with specific access points connected to the wired LAN.
You use these fields to specify the access points that provide the most efficient
data transmission link for the repeater.
If this access point is a repeater, type the MAC address of one or more root-unit
access points with which you want this access point to associate. With MAC
addresses in these fields, the repeater access point always tries to associate with
the specified access points instead of with other less-efficient access points.
For complete instructions on setting up repeater access points, see the “Setting Up
a Repeater Access Point” section on page 12-2.
Radio Modulation
Select Standard or MOK for the radio modulation the access point uses.
• Standard—This default setting is the modulation type specified in IEEE
802.11, the wireless standard published by the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards Association.
• MOK—This modulation was used before the IEEE finished the high-speed
802.11 standard and may still be in use in older wireless networks.
