Installation Guide

Configure the following options for the Access Point (AP):
Name for the AP
Interface—The interface name for the AP is denoted as wl-x/0/0, where x is the slot
on the services gateway in which the interface module is installed.
Country code—The country code setting identifies the regulatory domain in which the
access point operates. The country code affects the radio modes, list of channels, and
radio transmission power that the access point can support. Make sure you select the
correct code for the country in which the access point operates so that the access
point complies with the regulations in that country.

Radio Configuration Overview
The mini-PIM supports dual radios, each of which can be configured independently. A
radio can operate in any one of the radio modes specified by IEEE wireless networking
standards such as 802.11a, 802.11g, or 802.11n. The radio mode determines what type of
wireless clients can connect to the access point. You can configure the radio to support
only one type of wireless client or a mixed mode, where different types of clients can
connect to the radio.
Radios on the access point are enabled by default. You can disable a radio. When a radio
is disabled, the access point does not send messages to the connected wireless clients.
Configure the following options for each radio:
Channel number—If you select auto, then the access point chooses the channel
automatically.
Mode—The radio mode determines the types of wireless clients that can connect to
the access point. You can configure the radio to support only one type of wireless client
or a mixed mode, where different types of clients can connect to the radio.
Table 13 on page 29 lists the modes supported on each radio.
