WLAN Country Setting
Due to regulations, the country-specific setting has been removed from the setup menu and Web
Manager. However, we provide a separate utility for changing the Country/Zone setting. The
utility is called SetZone and is included in the package. It is also available for download from the
Lantronix web site.
The syntax is: SetZone <IP address> [<zone abbreviation>]
Leaving the zone blank causes the utility to report the current setting only. Following are valid
zone abbreviations. These settings are consistent with IEEE802.11b/g zones:
US=United States
CA=Canada
FR=France
SP=Spain
JP=Japan
OT=Others, such as Europe
(excluding France), Asia, Africa,
and Australia
