Cisco AP-Regulatory Domain

這一note主要解釋Regulatory Domain是什么。以較新的思科AP的型號舉例，思科AP的PID一般都是按照如下的命名：

AIR-AP3802I-H-K9C

按照自己的理解：

AIR：其中的相關信息都比較好理解，Aironet無線產品一般都是AIR開頭的，例如無線AP都是AIR-... ，無線WLC也是AIR-....

AP：AP自然不用多說，代表AP（Access Point）；

3802：代表AP的具體型號和系列，例如同系列的還有1810,1832,1852,2802,4800(4800是目前最新的AP）

H：代表的就是Regulatory Domain，這個和國家有關，因為不同的國家，允許的無線頻段不一樣，例如我們國家，-H就代表China，當然-C也可以在中國使用，因為-C的無線頻段也符合國家的允許。其實這個-H參數根本上代表的就是無線信道使用的頻段。

C (C regulatory domain):

●  2.412 to 2.472 GHz; 13 channels

K9：代表加密，這個和路由器中的K9應該差不多，K9 Product bundels have strong AES/3DES encryption.

C：代表Configurable，對於該類型號的AP，帶C代表出廠時ME（Mobility Express）鏡像的，如果不帶C，出廠的鏡像應該是LAP的鏡像。
