Reset Options
The following three reset options are available:
•
noReset: No reset is performed.
•
resetRadioCardIfNecessary: Some parameters can only be given to
the card at initialization time, and if any of these are changed, a card
reset will be necessary for them to go into place. The card will be reset
at this time if any of those parameters have been changed.
•
resetRadioCardRegardless: Forces the radio card to reset, even if no
radio card parameters have been changed.
System Scale
Specifies the current Access Point density in the Extended Service Set
(ESS). This value must be saved across a system reset and/or a power
cycle.
Secure Access
When this mode is set to enabled, the AP will only associate with stations
that have the same network name as the AP. When this mode is set to
disabled, a station with the network name of
ANY is allowed to associate.
This value must be saved across a system reset and/or a power cycle.
Multicast Tx Rate
This value specifies the Multicast data transmission rate of the AP. It is
implemented when cards that operate faster than the 2Mbit 802.11
standard are inserted. Possible values are
fixed1Mbit, fixed2Mbit,
fixedMediumRate, and fixedHighRate. This value must be saved across a
system reset and/or a power cycle.
Intra BSS Relay
When this mode is enabled, the AP entity within the PC Card will relay
frames destined for stations associated with it and will NOT forward them
to the bridging entity within the AP. When this mode is set to disabled, the
AP entity within the PC Card will not relay frames from wireless client(s) to
station(s) associated with it. Instead, it will forward frames to the bridging
entity within the AP. This value must be saved across a system reset and/
or a power cycle.
Station Name
The wireless station name sent out as part of the beacon messages. Valid
only when a DS card is inserted in the Access Point.
