When i setting the power to 20dbm, it's display as below:

 

AP02#interface wifi1 radio power 20

Warning: Power 20 exceeds HW limit(regulatory 10, board 19), forced to 10

 

AP and HM 's version both are 8.1r2

Hunter,

 

Please also use 8.4.r4. This version has the final power adjustment.

EIRP = Tx Power + antenna gain + chain gain - cable or connector loss

 

We allow 2.4GHz Tx power up to17dBm max in order to keep ERIP around 20 dBm. The actual Tx may be less than 17 depending on how many chains used by the AP and clients.

 

AP230#int wi0 radio power 20

There was a change made to our power settings a while back, so that we could better match the regulatory standards of different locations and governments. It's a difference between EIRP power and actual power, and we are now displaying actual power rather than EIRP power. If you set the power to a level above the max allowed then it will adjust the power down to an allowed level.
