CHAPTER 4: SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
802.11B/G INTERFACE
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, 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.
Most of the 802.11g commands are identical to those used by the 802.11a
interface. For information on the these commands, refer to the following
sections:
 “Configuring Radio Settings” on page 4-36
 “Configuring Common Radio Settings” on page 4-38
 “Configuring Wi-Fi Multimedia” on page 4-44
Only the radio settings specific to the 802.11g interface are included in this
section. To configure the 802.11g radio settings, select the Radio Settings page.
NOTE: You must first select a country of operation before interfaces can be
enabled.
