Fortress ES-Series CLI Guide: Networking and Radio Configuration
52
The virtual radio that can be created by combining radios on
select model Mesh Points through channel
sharing (as
described in Section 3.3.5) is limited to 5 GHz-band UNII-3
channels:
149 (the default) –165 (when the virtual radio is not
comprised of 4.4 GHz radios).
3.4.3 Distance, Beacon Interval, Noise Immunity
When the radio is used for bridging, set Distance to the
greatest unbridged distance between neighbor network nodes.
The unit used, kilometers by default, is determined by the
set
unit
control (Section 3.3.3). The default of 1 is appropriate for
radios used to provide network access to local wireless
devices.
