Range is:
16 chars

Enter 16 or fewer alphanumeric characters for this

password. It is case insensitive and can be any combination

of letters, numbers, and symbols. For security, the

password appears as asterisks on the screen.

Combining Radio Options

You can combine WLIF, 900 MHz, and S-UHF radios in a

common network by following basic guidelines for LAN ID.

Two alternatives are possible: same LAN ID and different

LAN IDs.

Same LAN ID

Using the same LAN ID for all radio options configures all

access points into a single network regardless of radio type.

This approach allows management of a single network

using the OWLView network management application.
An Ethernet path or wireless hop must exist from all access

points to the super root and back-up super root candidates.

In addition, globally distributed system parameters —

particularly flooding levels — must be appropriate for all of

the installed radio options.
