When you select operation mode as Access Point, the other fields on the SS-300-AT-C-60 tab get enabled. In case the
operation mode is WIPS sensor, these fields remain disabled.
SS-300-AT-C-60 has 2 radios. You can separately configure the 2 radios, Radio 1 and Radio 2. You can add multiple
SSID profiles to be monitored by the SS-300-AT-C-60 devices operating in AP mode.
The following table describes the fields related to Radio Settings.
Field
Description
Applicable to frequency
band
Operation Mode
This field specifies whether the device functions as an
access point or a WIPS sensor. Select access point if you
want the device to function as an access point. Select
WIPS sensor if you want the device to function as a
sensor. This field is enabled only for SS-300-AT-C-60
and SS-300-AT-C-50 devices. The other 2 devices can
function as WIPS sensors only.
NA
Frequency Band
This field specifies the radio frequency band. The
possible values are 2.4 GHz, 5GHz. default value is 2.4
GHz
-
Channel Width
This field specifies radio channel width. Possible values
are 20 MHz or 20 Mhz/40Mhz.
For 2.4 GHz and 5GHz modes,
the channel width defaults to
20MHz.
Operating
Channel
This field specifies the operating channel for the radio.
By default, the AP selects the operating channel
automatically. (Auto is selected, by default.) User can
manually set the channel if desired. Select Manual, to
set the operating channel manually. The channel list
presented for manual channel selection, is populated
based on the location selected in the left pane. If the
manually selected channel is not present in the country of
operation selected for the device in the applied AP
template, the AP falls back to auto mode and selects a
channel automatically.
All
Selection Interval
This field is visible and available when the Operating
Channel is Auto. This field specifies the time interval, in
hours, at which the channel selection happens. You may
enter any value between 1 and 48, both inclusive.
All
Channel Number
This field is visible and available when the Operating
Channel is Manual. This field specifies the operating
channel number.
Fragmentation
Threshold
This field specifies the Fragmentation Threshold, in
bytes. Permissible value for this field is between 256 and
2346 bytes (both inclusive).
This field is applicable to
5GHz and 2.4 GHz modes.
RTS Threshold
This field specifies the threshold for Request to Send
(RTS) in bytes. Permissible value for this field is between
256 and 2347 bytes (both inclusive). Default value is
2347 bytes.
This field is applicable to 5 GHz
and 2.4 GHz modes.
Beacon Interval
This field specifies the time interval between AP beacon
transmissions. The value is set to 100. It is not editable.
DTIM Period
The DTIM period specifies the period after which clients
connected to the AP should check for buffered data
waiting on the AP. The value is set to 1. It is not editable.
Custom Transmit
Power
This field enables you to control the transmission power
of the AP. Select the custom transmit power check box
and specify the transmission power of the AP in dBM.
Enable
Background
Scanning
Select this check box to enable background scanning by
the device.
802.11n Guard
Interval
A period at the end of each OFDM symbol allocated to
letting the signal dissipate prior to transmitting the next
signal. This prevents overlaps between two consecutive
symbols. Legacy 802.11a/b/g devices use 800ns GI. GI of
400ns is optional for 802.11n
This field is 802.11n specific.
