[. . . ] When you see the CMD: prompt in the Telnet window you're ready to enter commands. Making changes and restarting You use the set command to make configuration changes using Telnet. Configuration commands take the form: set parameter value To make the changes take effect: 1 Type restart at the prompt. This restarts the adapter with the new settings. 44 A040 Advanced User Guide Viewing changes Use the config command to view current settings: Use the CONFIG+ command to view the new settings for parameters which will take effect after performing a restart. Configuration parameters 45 Configuration settings The following parameters can be set using the Telnet command line program: Item auto_join Comment Set on if the adapter is to auto-join with any available Access Point. Note that the Telnet config command reports this as --- Automatic --off ­ adapter will only join the network specified by net_name. Controls the radio bit rate when running in peer-peer mode. Valid values are: 1000, 2000, 5500, 11000 (written in kbits/s). The command can take a list of parameters, for example: set basic_rate 11000 5500 basic_rate beacon_interval beep_level Time taken between two beacons. Controls the volume of the built-in beeper. Valid settings are: off completely suppressed quiet or medium the normal (default) sound level loud or high maximum volume Channel Clear Assessment ­ controls detection of activity over the air interface. Default channel at which to start scanning (dependent on Domain setting). The regulatory domain (see Appendix A ­ Regulatory domains for definitions. Interval setting for Delivery Traffic Indication Message. An IEEE802. 11 parameter which determines the maximum size of frames sent by the radio. Frames larger than frag_threshold are sent in several pieces. Lowering the value of frag_threshold can improve throughput for poor radio conditions, but reduces throughput for good radio conditions. cca_mode channel domain dtim_interval frag_threshold 46 A040 Advanced User Guide Item gateway help intercept Comment IP address of gateway. Required if adapter is to be managed from remote location. Displays all non-settable commands. , such as config. Specify intercept of TFTP, Web, SNMP and Telnet frames received from Air to IP address of the host computer. Note that Intercepts are only active if the adapter does not have a fixed IP address. For example: set intercept web on ip_address Fixed IP address of adapter. If you don't want to set an IP address, just type set ip_address with no parameter (this actually sets the IP address to 0. 0. 0. 0). long_retry manager Specify value of "long retry" to radio. [. . . ] Plug one end of the A040's power adapter into a wall outlet. Using the tip of a ballpoint pen, press and hold in the hidden reset button on the underside of the unit. While holding in the reset button, plug the other end of the power adapter cable into the unit's power connector. The LEDs will come on, then go out again. [. . . ]
