Configuration Utility 802.1X : Accept normal clients and work simultaneously with RADIUS Server. The encryption key is got from RADIUS Server dynamically. • Encryption Key Length You can select either 64 bits or 128 bits. • RADIUS Server IP The 802.1X server’s IP address. • RADIUS port The 802.1X server’s service port. • RADIUS Shared Key Key value shared by the RADIUS server and this router. This key value is consistent with the key value in the RADIUS server. 38 Configuration Utility WPA-PSK : Accept WPA clients only and Pre-share key (encryption key) must be entered manually. You can input either 8 to 63 ASCII characters or 64 Hexadecimal digits as Pre-share key. • Pre-share Key Mode Either ASCII or HEX can be selected. • Pre-share Key Please input either 8 to 63 ASCII characters or 64 Hexadecimal digits as Pre-share key. 39 Configuration Utility WPA : Accept WPA clients only and work simultaneously with RADIUS Server. The encryption key is got from RADIUS Server dynamically. • RADIUS Server IP The 802.1X server’s IP address. • RADIUS port The 802.1X server’s service port. • RADIUS Shared Key Key value shared by the RADIUS server and this router. This key value is consistent with the key value in the RADIUS server. Note: If you enable 802.1X or WPA feature, you must also have a RADIUS Server ready. 40 Configuration Utility Description: • WEP Encryption: The WEP encrypts frames transmitted through wireless module using preentered WEP key. You can configure 4 key sets, and select one of them to apply. Note: To complete the WPA operation, you also need to enable the WPA client at the wireless client site (the computer running wireless client’s devices, such as the GWP514 Cardbus card GWP514 Cardbus Card or GWU523 USB adaptor). • Microsoft provides a free WPA upgrade for Windows XP Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later or Windows Server 2003. For any OS other than Win XP, there is client software available from third-party suppliers such as Funk Software’s Odyssey (www.funk.com). • WPA Encryption: Wi-Fi protected Access is designed to improve Data protection and implement access control for Wireless LAN system. It encrypts frames transmitted through wireless module using Pre-share key (PSK) or the key got dynamically from RADIUS Server. The WPA client for Windows XP can be found in the Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 815485 (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;enus;815485) or downloaded directly from Microsoft 802.1X: When the 802.1X function is enabled, the Wireless user must authenticate to this router first to use the Network service. The most common method of implementing 802.1X is by having a RADIUS Server on your LAN containing an authentication database, so the router can work simultaneously with the server and get the user’s authentication profile for comparison. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/ details.aspx?FamilyID=009d8425-ce2b-47a4-abec274845dc9e91&displaylang=en 41 Configuration Utility After installed, the Windows WPA Client will update the wireless network configuration dialog boxes to support new WPA options. 1.

In the Wireless Network Connection Properties window, under Wireless Networks tab, please check the box of “Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings” to turn on the Wireless Zero Configuration service. Select the wireless access point you want to associate to, then click Configure box at the right side to bring up next dialogue window. 42 Configuration Utility 3. Set up your WPA configuration by selecting the Network Authentication mode and Data encryption, and input same Network key as you input at the Wireless-G Broadband Gateway. Then, you are served by a more secured wireless network 43 Configuration Utility network, but.only the wireless clients with the same WEP key can to communicate on the wireless network. Enhanced Setting SSID broadcast If the option is enabled, the SSID of the AP could be seen in the site survey of wireless client’s utility. If the option is disabled, the SSID of the AP will not be seen in the wireless client’s utility. Authentication Type If Shared Key is selected, the Access Point will not be seen on the wireless network except to the wireless clients which share the same WEP key as the Access Point. If Open System is chosen, the Access Point will be visible to all clients on the Wireless Mode 11g only: The AP could let the 11g wireless clients to connect only. 11b only: The AP could let the 11b and 11g wireless clients to connect, but the 11g wireless clients will connect the AP in 11b mode. Mixed: The AP could let both 11b and 11g wireless clients to connect 44 Configuration Utility The Wireless Distribution System (WDS) provides wireless point-to-point bridging, and point-tomultipoint bridging for deployment over large area. With the WDS feature, the WLAN coverage range can be easily extended. WDS Setting Wireless Bridging The wireless bridging feature can be enabled by setting the mode to Enable. The default setting is Disable, only access point function is available. Once the Wireless Bridging is enabled, both wireless bridging and wireless access point functions are simutaneously available. Remote AP MAC Please enter the MAC Address of WDS-enabled AP. Only autherized AP can access this router through WDS feature to extend the WLAN coverage range. Up to 3 AP’s MAC are allowed. 45 Configuration Utility Associated Client List It displays information of stations that are currently associated to your wireless router.

Outbound filter applies on all outbound packets. However, Inbound filter applies on packets that destined to Virtual Servers or DMZ host only. You can select one of the two filtering policies: 1. Allow all to pass except those match the specified rules 2. Deny all to pass except those match the specified rules 55 Configuration Utility Each rule can be enabled or disabled individually. Use Rule# You can specify 8 rules for each directions: inbound or outbound. For each rule, you can define the following: • • • • • Choose the schedule when you want to make this service take effect, and select the ID you want to use with the schedule rule. Then click “Copy to” botton to copy it into the “Use rule #” box to use the schedule. When choosing rule 0 for always, it is the same as not using schedule. Source IP address Source port address Destination IP address Destination port address Protocol: TCP or UDP or both. For source or destination IP address, you can define a single IP address (4.3.2.1) or a range of IP addresses (4.3.2.1-4.3.2.254). An empty implies all IP addresses. For source or destination port, you can define a single port (80) or a range of ports (1000-1999). Add prefix “T” or “U” to specify TCP or UDP protocol. For example, T80, U53, U2000-2999. No prefix indicates both TCP and UDP are defined. An empty implies all port addresses. 56 Configuration Utility Schedule example Assume that there is a rule setting in Rule 1 which is Everyday 17:30~24:00, and there is a FTP server which IP is 192.168.123.5 and listening port 21. The Virtual Server’s setting is as below: Description: It means the WAN users can’t access this FTP server only at 17:30~24:00 everyday. If the time exceeds this range, the WAN users can access the LAN FTP server. 57
