Client Adapter Configuration Parameters (continued)
Description
Sets your client adapter to its optimum power-consumption setting.
Options: CAM, Fast PSP, or Max PSP
Default: CAM (Constantly Awake Mode)
Power Save Mode
CAM (Constantly Awake
Mode)
Fast PSP (Power Save
Mode)
Max PSP (Max Power
Savings)
Enables or disables WEP for your client adapter.
Options: Enabled or Disabled
Default: Disabled
This parameter can be used in two ways:
• If you set a WEP key using CEM, you must also select Enabled for
this parameter to enable WEP for your client adapter.
• If you enabled LEAP for your client adapter, this parameter is
changed automatically to Enabled, and the RADIUS server assigns
a dynamic, session-based WEP key to the adapter.
Chapter 5 Advanced Configuration
Description
Keeps the client adapter powered up
continuously so there is little lag in
message response time.
Consumes the most power but offers the
highest throughput. Is recommended for
desktop computers and devices that use
AC power.
Switches between PSP mode and CAM
mode, depending on network traffic. This
mode switches to CAM when retrieving a
large number of packets and switches back
to PSP after the packets have been
retrieved.
Is recommended when power consumption
is a concern but you need greater
throughput than that allowed by Max PSP.
Causes the access point to buffer incoming
messages for the client adapter, which
wakes up periodically and polls the access
point to see if any buffered messages are
waiting for it. The adapter can request
each message and then go back to sleep.
Conserves the most power but offers the
lowest throughput. Is recommended for
devices for which power consumption is
the ultimate concern (such as small
battery-powered devices).
