Most of the parameters that can be changed are related to the
Aironet protocol which the Aironet Arlan 655 card implements.
The
utility can also be used to view the current NIC status, configuration,
and to dump out the values of the card's statistics counters.
The
iface
argument given to

device
( arl0 , arl1
etc.) and must be specified.
OPTIONS

iface priority priority (normal , high , highest
)
Use the priority
parameter to set the priority of the Arlan 655 Radio Media Access Control
the values are
normal , high
or
highest
The higher the priority is set, the more likely this unit will be the first
to successfully transmit a packet when multiple units are trying
to transmit at the same time.
The percentage of units on your network that you set to values other than
normal
should be kept small - 10 percent or less.
iface txretry txretry
Set transmit retries.
Default is 0.
iface stat
Print internal Arlan 655 statistics block.
iface quality
Display the cached signal level and quality maintained by the
arl(4)
driver.
The driver retains information about quality and level for packets
received from different hosts.
Also the driver extracts values from ACK packets.
EXAMPLES
arlcontrol arl0 country 11 priority high
arlcontrol arl0 quality
arlcontrol arl0 stat
arlcontrol arl0
You can configure the Arlan 655 card from
/etc/start_if.arl0
For example:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/arlcontrol country 9 priority highest
