Introduction
Configuring the Client Adapter
Core Issue
There are multiple options and features that can (and should) be configured on the Aironet client, among them:
- System Parameters—Prepares the client adapter for use in a wireless network
- RF Network—Controls how the client adapter transmits and receives data
- Advanced (Infrastructure)—Controls how the client adapter operates within an infrastructure network
- Advanced (Ad Hoc)—Controls how the client adapter operates within an ad hoc (peer-to-peer) network
- Network Security—Controls how a client adapter associates to an access point, authenticates to the wireless network, and encrypts and decrypts data
