Q. Is there a limitation on the number of MAC address filters that can be
configured on the AP?
A. You can use the CLI in order to configure up to 2,048 MAC addresses for filtering, but,
with the use of the web−browser interface, you can configure only up to 43 MAC addresses
for filtering.
Q. What is the typical range for an AP?
A. The answer to this question depends on many factors, which include these:
Data rate (bandwidth) that you desire♦
Antenna type♦
Antenna cable length♦
The device that receives the transmission♦
In an optimal installation, the range can be up to 300 feet.
Q. What are the available transmit power level settings for a 1200 AP?
A. The transmit power settings are different and depend on the radio that is used. Refer to
Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Point Data Sheet for the complete list of power setting
levels. Because the power settings vary on the basis of the channel, perform a site survey. The
site survey is important in order to get accurate information on the setting to use. Refer to
Wireless Site Survey FAQ for details on site surveys.
Q. How can I set the AP so that only IEEE 802.11g clients can connect? I
do not want the IEEE 802.11b clients to connect and slow down the
wireless network. There is a second, parallel 802.11b network for
unsecured clients.
A. In order for the AP to receive only 802.11g clients, complete these steps in the GUI:
Go to the Network Interfaces section and click Radio 0−802.11G.1.
Click the Settings tab at the top of the Radio 0−802.11G window.2.
Choose Disable for these data rates:
1.0◊
2.0◊
5.5◊
11.0◊

Choose Require for all the other data rates. These are the other data rates:
