Wireless Interface Configuration
Setting the Country Code
Setting the Country Code
The correct country code must be set for the country in which you operate
the access point so that it uses the correct authorized radio channels for
wireless network devices. The country code can only be set using the CLI.
The Country Code must be set before configuring other radio settings. This
setting affects the radio channels that are available.
No t e The J8130A comes with the country pre-configured; the J8131A does not. The
radio is disabled if the Country Code is not set. Once the Country Code is set,
the radio can be enabled.

The following example shows how to set the Country Code for the access
point to United Kingdom (GB). You can display the available country codes
by using the country ? command. A full list of the access point’s Country Codes
is provided in Table 8-1 on page 8-11.
No t e Setting the Country Code requires a system reboot.
Once the Country Code has been set and the system rebooted, the CLI
command is no longer available. If you need to change the Country Code, you
must reload the access point default configuration by using the reset configu-
ration command, or by pressing the access point’s Reset button for more than
five seconds.
