method need to be entered in the Encapsulation Table.
For all Aironet equipment, the defined packet encapsulation standard is
802.1H. The Show, Add and Remove options allow you to manage a
table of alternate, non-I802.1H encapsulation methods that might be
required to read data packets sent from the other, non-Aironet equip-
ment. The primary alternate to the I802.1H standard is RFC 1042.

On an Ethernet LAN, the data portion of a frame may be in one of two
formats: DIX or DSAP/SSAP. The two formats differ both in packet size
specifications and in the manner of heading, or starting, the data por-
tion. An 802 wireless LAN requires packets to start with the DSAP/
SSAP format and therefore must provide a method of conversion. DSAP/
SSAP packet types are easily converted since the header is already in the
required style. DIX packet types present more of a problem since there
are many different formats and no standard conversion method.

Aironet’s 802.1H conversion protocol accommodates both DIX and
DSAP/SSAP packet types. In an 802.1H conversion, DIX type packets
are prepended with a header that mimics the DSAP/SSAP header. In an
Aironet infrastructure, this header style is not used by any wired Ether-
net nodes so the remote radio node is always able to accurately recon-
vert the packet.
