U Country settings
Regulations for the operation of WLAN cards differ from country to country.
The use of some radio channels is prohibited in certain countries. To operate
the BAT Access Points while observing the regulations in various countries,
all physical WLAN interfaces can be set up for the country where they are op-
erated.
U WLAN module operation
The WLAN modules can be operated in various operating modes:
D As a base station (Access Point mode), the device makes the link be-
tween WLAN clients and the cabled LAN. Parallel to this, point-to-point
connections are possible as well.
D In Managed Mode the Access Points also accept WLAN clients into the
network, although the clients then join a WLAN infrastructure that is con-
figured by a central WLAN Controller. In this operating mode, no further
WLAN configuration is necessary as all WLAN parameters are provided
by the WLAN Controller.
D In client mode, the device itself locates the connection to another Access
Point and attempts to register with a wireless network. In this case the de-
vice serves, for example, to link a cabled network device to an Access
Point over a wireless connection. In this operating mode, parallel point-to-
point connections are not possible.
