Overview
Overview
The ACU enables you to change the configuration parameters of your client adapter. The adapter’s
parameters are organized into two main categories depending on your network’s configuration:
• Enterprise parameters—Use these parameters to configure your client adapter for use in an
enterprise network, such as that found in a large organization:
–
System parameters—Prepare the client adapter for use in a wireless network
–
Network security parameters—Control the level of security provided to your wireless
network
Note See Chapter 4, “Enabling Security Features,” for instructions on setting network security parameters.
–
RF network parameters—Control how the client adapter transmits and receives data
–
Advanced infrastructure parameters—Control how the client adapter operates within an
infrastructure network
–
Advanced ad hoc parameters—Control how the client adapter operates within an ad hoc
(peer-to-peer) network
• Home networking parameters—Use these parameters to prepare your client adapter to operate in
a home network.
Note Despite their name, the home networking parameters are not limited to use in a home
network. For instance, these parameters, which are confined to one screen, provide a
convenient way to minimally configure the client adapter.
Table 5-1 enables you to quickly locate the instructions for modifying the client adapter’s parameters.
