6.3 Configuring an Individual iRAP
The integrated RadioFrame Access Point (iRAP) provides the 802.11b/g wireless
interface between the RFS and the corporate local area network (LAN). Typically, all
iRAPs in the RFS are configured at one time using the 802.11 Global Configuration
options. These global settings can be overridden by changing configuration information
for individual iRAPs. Individual iRAPs can also be isolated from further global changes as
well.
NOTE: WEP Encryption and Enhanced Security settings override global 802.11 settings.
Typically, changing these settings is done to isolate the iRAP for testing.
1
Using the System Configuration tab, drill down to the RFU that contains the iRAP(s)
you want to configure, and then select the iRAP icon to display its configuration page.
2
For SSID, either leave the globally configured SSID name as it is, or enter up to 31
alphanumeric characters to change it.
The SSID you enter must be a valid SSID that is recognized by System Manager.
3
For Channel, type 1, 6, or 11 to specify the channel to be used by the iRAP.
At the time of shipment, all iRAPs are set to Channel 6 by default. Channel numbers
can only be changed at the iRAP level—channels cannot be changed using global
settings. If a 3-channel frequency plan is implemented, RFN recommends using
channels 1, 6, and 11 (in countries where these channels are permitted).

Select ‘Save Changes’ to save the SSID and Channel settings.
