Dell PowerConnect W-AirWave 7.5 | Configuration Guide Configuration Reference | 107Spectrum Profile Select a profile to define settings for Spectrum scanning. Select the pencil icon to edit anexisting Spectrum profile, or click the plus sign to create a new AM Scanning profile. Youare directed to the Spectrum Profile setup page.NOTE: AirWave displays an error message if you try to select an incompatible spectrumprofile. A '2 GHz' spectrum band profile cannot be referenced by an '802.11a' profile andvice-versa.AM ScanningProfileSelect a profile to define settings for Air Monitor Scanning. Select the pencil icon to edit anexisting AM Scanning profile, or click the plus sign to create a new AM Scanning profile.High-throughputRadio Profiledefault-a Select a high-throughput (HT) profile from the drop-down menu to define HT settings foryour 802.11a/g radio profile. Select the pencil icon to edit an existing HT Radio profile, orclick the plus sign to create a new HT Radio profile. You are directed to the HT Radio Profilesetup page. Once you have configured this referenced profile, AirWave returns you to the802.11a/g Profile page.For additional HT radio profile information, refer to “Profiles > RF > 802.11a/g Radio > HTRadio” on page 114.Other SettingsRadio Enable Yes Enable transmissions on this radio band.Mode ap-mode Set the access Point operating mode. Available options are as follows: am-mode—Device behaves as an air monitor to collect statistics, monitor traffic,detect intrusions, enforce security policies, balance traffic load, self-heal coveragegaps, etc. ap-mode—Access Point mode sensor-mode—RFprotect sensor mode spectrum-mode—Spectrum sensor mode. Device operates as an spectrum monitor,and can send spectrum analysis data to a desktop or laptop client.High ThroughputEnable (Radio)Yes Enable or disable high-throughput (802.11n) features on the radio.Channel (34-165) Set the transmit channel for this radio.Secondary Channel None Sets a secondary channel in relation to the primary channel defined just above. Select anoption as follows: None—no secondary channel Above—secondary channel is just above the channel defined in Channel field Below—secondary channel is just below the channel defined in the Channel fieldBeacon Period 100 Sets the Beacon Period for the AP in milliseconds. The supported range is from 60 to 30,000milliseconds.Beacon Regulate No Enabling this setting introduces randomness in the beacon generation so that multiple APson the same channel do not send beacons at the same time, which causes collisions overthe air.Transmit Power 15 Sets the maximum transmit power (EIRP) in dBm from 0 to 30 in 0.5 dBm increments. Thissetting is limited further by regulatory domain constraints and AP capabilities.TPC Power 15 The transmit power advertised in the TPC IE of beacons and probe responses. Range: 0-51dBmAdvertise 802.11dand 802.11hCapabilitiesNo Enable or disable the radio to advertise its 802.11d (Country Information) and 802.11h(Transmit Power Control) capabilities.Table 52 Profiles > RF > 802.11a/g Profile Settings (Continued)Field Default Description
