Table 2-4 Description about the Wireless indicator (Wireless bridge indicator)

NOTE

When the WDS/Mesh function is enabled on an AP, the blinking frequency of its Wireless indicator indicates the receive signal strength on the WDS/Mesh connection by default. After you connect an AP to a WDS/Mesh network, you can run the wifi-light { signal-strength | traffic } command on the AC to specify whether the Wireless indicator blinking frequency indicates the receive signal strength or service traffic rate.

 wifi-light signal-strength:

 If the Mesh function is enabled on the AP, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator

reflects the weakest signal strength of all neighboring APs.

 If WDS is enabled on an AP, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator reflects the

strength of signals received from a WDS AP.  If the AP works in leaf mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator reflects

the strength of signals received from a middle AP.

 If the AP works in middle mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator

reflects the strength of signals received from a root AP.

 If the AP works in root mode, the blinking frequency of the Wireless indicator reflects

the weakest signal strength of middle APs.

 wifi-light traffic: allows the Wireless indicator to reflect the service traffic volume on the radio. When an AP functions as a Fat AP, the Wireless indicator of the AP cannot reflect the signal strength.

NOTICE

If the AP is delivered to the USA, pay attention to the following on channel and frequency band usage.

1. The country code of the AP is fixed.

2. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Caution: The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

—Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. —Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. —Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. —Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment

should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 40cm between the radiator and any part of your body.
