Which format is allowed for specifying a wireless scan-list?

The format that specifies a wireless scan-list correctly uses a dash to denote a range of frequencies. In wireless configurations, particularly in MikroTik routers, the correct way to indicate a range is with a hyphen. This format allows the system to understand that it should include all frequencies within that specified range from 5500 to 5700 MHz.

Using a range with a dash is a common standard in various network configurations, as it clearly delineates the starting and ending points of a list without ambiguity. In this context, it enables the router to scan and operate across all specified frequencies seamlessly, ensuring optimal performance and compatibility with devices operating within that range.

Other formats do not meet the standard conventions or syntax typically recognized by networking equipment. For example, using spaces, which do not create a meaningful range, or slashes, which could indicate a division of values rather than a consecutive range, could lead to incorrect interpretations by the system, thereby failing to configure the wireless scan-list properly.
