your primary method, or standard, and choose that as the <strong>de</strong>fault setting<br />

with the Encap option. All methods other than the primary, or <strong>de</strong>fault,<br />

method need to be entered in the Encapsulation Table.<br />

For all Aironet equipment, the <strong>de</strong>fined packet encapsulation standard is<br />

802.1H. The Show, Add and Remove options allow you to manage a<br />

table of alternate, non-I802.1H encapsulation methods that might be<br />

required to read data packets sent from the other, non-Aironet equipment.<br />

The primary alternate to the I802.1H standard is RFC 1042.<br />

On an Ethernet LAN, the data <strong>port</strong>ion of a frame may be in one of two<br />

formats: DIX or DSAP/SSAP. The two formats differ both in packet size<br />

specifications and in the manner of heading, or starting, the data <strong>port</strong>ion.<br />

An 802 wireless LAN requires packets to start with the DSAP/<br />

SSAP format and therefore must provi<strong>de</strong> a method of conversion. DSAP/<br />

SSAP packet types are easily converted since the hea<strong>de</strong>r is already in the<br />

required style. DIX packet types present more of a problem since there<br />

are many different formats and no standard conversion method.<br />

Aironet’s 802.1H conversion protocol accommodates both DIX and<br />

DSAP/SSAP packet types. In an 802.1H conversion, DIX type packets<br />

are prepen<strong>de</strong>d with a hea<strong>de</strong>r that mimics the DSAP/SSAP hea<strong>de</strong>r. In an<br />

Aironet infrastructure, this hea<strong>de</strong>r style is not used by any wired Ethernet<br />

no<strong>de</strong>s so the remote radio no<strong>de</strong> is always able to accurately reconvert<br />

the packet.
