Wireless LAN Access Point Configuration
Beacon Interval The interval of time that this access point broadcast a beacon. Beacon is
used to synchronize the wireless network.
Data Rate The “Data Rate” is the rate this access point uses to transmit data
packets. The access point will use the highest possible selected
transmission rate to transmit the data packets.
Preamble Type Preamble type defines the length of CRC block in the frames during the
wireless communication. “Short Preamble” is sui table for high traffic
wireless network. “Long Preamble” can provide more reliable
communication.
Broadcast ESSID If you enable “Broadcast ESSID”, every wireless station located within
the coverage of this access point can discover this access point easily. If
you are building a public wireless network, enabling this feature is
recommended. Disabling “Broadcast ESSID” can provide better security.
IAPP If you enable “IAPP”, the access point will automatically broadcast
information of associated wireless stations to its neighbors. This will help
wireless station roaming smoothly between access points. If you have
more than one access points in your wireless LAN and wireless stations
have roaming requirements, enabling this feature is recommended.
Disabling “IAPP” can provide better security.
802.11g Protection This is also called CTS Protection. It is recommended to enable the
protection mechanism. This mechanism can decrease the rate of data
collision between 802.11b and 802.11g wireless stations. When the
protection mode is enabled, the throughput of the AP will be a little lower
due to many of frame traffic should be transmitted.
