Planning the Nortel WLAN 2300 System 119Nortel WLAN—Management Software 2300 Series Reference GuideGo to “Specifying the Wireless Technology for a Coverage Area”.Specifying the Wireless Technology for a Coverage Area(To draw a coverage area, see “Drawing a Coverage Area” (page 117).) To specify wireless technology for a coveragearea:1 In the Technology list, select one of the following:• 802.11a• 802.11b• 802.11g• 802.11a and 802.11b• 802.11a and 802.11gSelect 802.11a and 802.11b if the area requires 802.11a and 802.11b coverage. Select 802.11a and802.11g if the area requires 802.11a and 802.11g coverage.When you specify a coverage area requiring different technologies, WLAN Management Softwarecreates two areas that completely overlap each other: one area for 802.11a and another for 802.11b/g. Anarea requiring 802.11a and 802.11b uses a dual-radio AP model for calculation even if you specify asingle-radio AP.2 To refine the dimensions of the coverage area, specify the appropriate dimension in the X-Length andY-Length boxes.3 Click Next.The wizard presents properties and association pages for the technology you chose in step 1. Thefollowing example shows the wizard for 802.11a and 802.11g technologies.
