be increased by setting a custom maximum link distance value. This value can be specified in
either metric or imperial units.
The maximum link distance setting is uniform across all VAPs. Changing it for
one will automatically change it for all others as well.
CLI
The example below shows how to set the maximum link distance supported by a VAP using
the CLI. The maximum link distance is set with the ‘distance’ parameter in the ‘wlan
N
’
interfaces and is specified in either kilometers or miles. The ‘units’ parameter in the ‘sys’
interface determines whether the distance units are to be entered in kilometers or miles. Set
‘units’ to “metric” for kilometers, and to “imperial” for miles.
Set the ‘distance’ parameter to “DEFAULT” or leave it blank to use the default maximum link
range.

Web GUI
The maximum link distance supported by an VAP can be set via the web interface using the
appropriate “wlan
N
” tab on the “Wireless Interfaces” page (see Figure 41). Enter a value and
specify whether it is in kilometers of miles using the adjacent drop-down menu.
Set the ‘distance’ parameter to “DEFAULT” or leave it blank to use the default maximum link
range.
