ple APs supporting mobility. This address must be a unique
value for each AP. This parameter has no effect in single AP net-
works. [0]
•
FEC—Forward Error Correction status (enabled or disabled).
The FEC setting has a significant effect on the throughput or
speed of the radio network. For a discussion of this and other
issues affecting throughput, see “OPTIMIZING PERFOR-
MANCE” on Page 160. In particular, Table 6-7 of this section
shows the FEC settings and how they relate to hop times and the
bytes-per-packet rate. [Enabled, Disabled; Disabled]
