8.5 Country Codes
The radio channel frequencies allocated for 802.11 wireless devices differ slightly in various
countries. The LAN-Cell’s internal 802.11 access point’s default settings utilize channels
which are appropriate for North America. If you will be deploying the LAN-Cell outside of
North America, you must change the LAN-Cell’s Country Code in order to modify the 802.11
access point’s channel frequencies for your local region.
1 Failure to use the correct Country Code may cause unintended interference or
prevent other 802.11 equipment from connecting to the LAN-Cell and may
violate local communication regulations.
To change the LAN-Cell’s Country Code:
1 Refer to Appendix E on page 631 to find the code for your Country/Region.
2 Using either the Console Port or a Telnet/SSH session, log into the System Management
Terminal (SMT). Refer to Chapter 23 Introducing the SMT.
3 Select Menu 24 (System Maintenance), then Menu 8 (Command Interpreter Mode).
4 At the command line prompt, enter the command: sys countrycode NNN
where NNN is the 3 digit country code value from Table 257 on page 631.
5 Press [ENTER] to save the new country code value.
6 Type sys countrycode [ENTER] to confirm the new country code value.
