Parameters for the wireless connection
The same values must be set for a variety of parameters to ensure that the wireless
network adapters in the mobile stations and access points can identify each other and
exchange data with one another.
All wireless network adapters (in base and mobile stations) that use the same
parameters make up a wireless network. The selection of these parameters can be used
specifically to set up separate wireless networks that do not interfere with one another.
The parameters for the wireless network adapters in the access points are configured via
ELSA LANconfig
or Telnet.
