Physical WLAN parameters

Here the physical WLAN parameters are set for assignment to the APs. The following parameters can be defined for each set of physical WLAN parameters:

LANconfig: WLAN Controller > Profiles > Physical WLAN parameters

WEBconfig: LCOS menu tree > Setup > WLAN-Management > AP-Configuration > Radioprofiles

• NameUnique name for this combination of physical WLAN parameters.
• InheritanceSelection of a physical WLAN parameter set defined earlier and from which the settings are to be inherited.
• CountryThe country in which the APs are to be operated. This information is used to define country-specific settings such as the permitted channels, etc.
• Automatic channel selectionAs standard the APs can use all of the channels permitted in the country of operation. To restrict the selection to certain channels, these can be entered here as a comma-separated list. It is also possible to specify ranges or lists (e.g.'1,6,11').
• Management VLAN-IDThe VLAN ID of the management network used to manage the APs.
  Anmerkung: The Management VLAN ID must be set to a value not equal to zero in order for VLANs to be used over the WLAN networks. This also applies when the management network itself is not to be tagged with VLAN IDs (Mgmt-VLANID=1).
  Anmerkung: VLAN activation only applies to WLAN networks which are connected by means of these physical WLAN parameters.
• Band steering activatedThis entry determines whether the AP should enable band steering. In this case, a dual-port access point can forward a WLAN client to a preferred frequency band.
