Configuring the Channel and Transmit Power
Tosetthechannelandtransmitpowerofaradio,usethefollowingcommands:
set {ap port-list| dap dap-num} radio {1 | 2} channel channel-number
set {ap port-list | dap dap-num} radio {1 | 2} tx-power power-level

Note: If RF Auto-Tuning is enabled for channels or power, you cannot set the channels or power
manually using the commands in this section. Refer to Chapter 11, ” Configuring RF Auto-
Tuning”.
Note: The maximum transmit power you can configure on any Enterasys Networks radio is the
highest setting allowed for the country of operation or the highest setting supported on the hardware,
whichever is lower.
