Transmit Capacity Maximum permitted data rate for Ethernet frames. The
actual data rate depends upon the prevailing wireless
conditions.

established between units with different Transmit Capacity

For more information, see Starting the full capacity trial
on page 6-24.
Generating a new license key
To generate a new license key to activate new licensed capabilities (for example activate

Select Key Generator. The PTP License Key Generator form should be displayed.
4
Enter the required details, including the access keys supplied by the dealer.
5
Submit the web form. The PTP License Key Generator will respond with the new
license key.

To upgrade the unit to a new license key, select menu option System, License Key. The
Software License Key page is displayed (Figure 118). Enter the new License Key and select
Validate license key. If the license key is valid, a confirmation message is displayed.
