5 - 256 WiNG 5.6 Access Point System Reference Guide
12. Use the Feed WLAN Packets to Sensor drop-down menu to allow the radio to send WLAN packet to the sensor radio.
Options include Off, Inline and Promiscuous. The default setting is off.
13. Select the WLAN Mapping/Mesh Mapping tab.
Figure 5-166 Device Overrides - WLAN Mapping tab
Refer to the WLAN/BSS Mappings field to set or override WLAN BSSID assignments for an existing access point
deployment. Use the ‘<‘ or ‘>’ buttons to assign WLANs and mesh points to the available BSSIDs.
Short Preamble If using an 802.11bg radio, select this option for the radio to transmit using a short
preamble. Short preambles improve throughput. However, some devices (SpectraLink
phones) require long preambles. The default value is disabled.
Guard Interval Use the drop-down menu to specify a Long or Any guard interval. The guard interval is the
space between symbols (characters) being transmitted. The guard interval eliminates
inter-symbol interference (ISI). ISI occurs when echoes or reflections from one symbol
interfere with another symbol. Adding time between transmissions allows echo's and
reflections to settle before the next symbol is transmitted. A shorter guard interval results
in a shorter symbol times which reduces overhead and increases data rates by up to 10%.
The default value is Long.
Probe Response Rate Use the drop-down menu to specify the data transmission rate used for the transmission
of probe responses. Options include, highest-basic, lowest-basic and follow-probe-
request (default setting).
Probe Response Retry Select this option to retry probe responses if they are not acknowledged by the target
wireless client. The default value is enabled.
