[Appendix 2 Security]
[Channel Number]
combo box
Specifies the channel number to be used for communication.
If an adjacent access point uses the same channel number, two
access points interfere with each other, resulting in deteriorated
throughputs. If so, change the number of either channel.
The default is 10.
[Distance between APs]
combo box
Specifies the size of the area covered by access points.
Select “Large,” “Medium,” or “Small.”
The default is “Large.”
[Multicast Rate]
combo box
Specifies the transmission rate of multicast packets sent from
the access point.
Select 1, 2, 5.5, or 11 Mbps.
The default is 2 Mbps.
[DTIM Period]
edit box
DTIM is an acronym of Delivery Traffic Indication Map. The
send timing of multicast packets sent from the access point can
be adjusted.
When the value is 1 (normal), a multicast packet is sent at every
beacon. When the value is 3, multicast packets are
accumulated in the buffer and sent every third beacon.
Although a value from 1 to 65535 can be specified, it is
recommended to set 1 for normal operation.
The default is 1.
