Radio Interface
The IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g interfaces include configuration
options for radio signal characteristics and wireless security
features. The configuration options are nearly identical, but
depend on which interface is operating as the bridge band. Both
interfaces and operating modes are covered in this section of the
manual.
The access point can operate in the following modes:
• 802.11a in bridge mode and 802.11g in access point mode
• 802.11a in access point mode and 802.11g in bridge mode
• 802.11a and 802.11g both in access point mode (no bridging)
• 802.11a only in bridge or access point mode
• 802.11g only in bridge or access point mode
Note that 802.11g is backward compatible with 802.11b and can
be configured to support both client types or restricted to 802.11g
clients only. Both wireless interfaces are configured
independently under the following web pages:
• Radio Interface A: 802.11a
• Radio Interface G: 802.11b/g
Note: The radio channel settings for the wireless bridge are limited by
local regulations, which determine the number of channels that
are available.
