Under 802.11n mode, wireless client can be divided into HT STA and Non-HT STA, among which the one with HT protect enabled gets higher throughput. Note: STA stands for Station which is referred to wireless clients connecting to Access Point. Frequency/Channel Channel varies much as the available band differs from country to country. Select a proper operating channel in the drop-down list according to your situation Extension Channel Only applicable to AP, AP Repeater, and 40MHz channel width indicates the use of channel EKI-6331AN_User Manual_for NCC Page bonding that allows EKI-6331AN to use two channels at once. Two options are available: Upper Channel and Lower Channel. Channel Mode 4 levels are available: 40MHz, 20MHz, 10MHz and 5MHz. 40MHz can enhance data throughput, but it takes more bandwidth, thus it might cause potential interference. Antenna By default, EKI-6331AN uses its built-in antenna for directional transmission;. Maximum Output Power (per chain): Specify the signal transmission power. The higher the output power is, the wider the signal can cover, but the power consumption will be greater accordingly. Note: The output power here is counted from the RF single chain only not including the 15dBi internal antenna. The maximum output power will vary depending on the country selected in order to comply with the local regulation. Data Rate Usually “Auto” is preferred. Under this rate, EKI-6331AN will automatically select the highest available rate to transmit. In some cases, however, like where there is no great demand for speed, you can have a relatively-low transmit rate for compromise of a long distance. Extension Channel Protection Mode This is to avoid conflict with other wireless network and boost the ability of your device to catch all legacy devices transmissions. However, it may decrease wireless network performance. Compared to CTS-Self; the transmission amount of CTS-RTS is much lower. Enable MAC Clone Available in wireless client mode, it hides the MAC address of EKI-6331AN while displays the one of associated wireless client or the MAC address designated manually. EKI-6331AN_User Manual_for NCC Page Site Survey Under wireless client mode, EKI-6331AN is able to perform site survey, through which, information on the available access points will be detected. Open “Basic Settings” in “Wireless”, by clicking the “Site Survey” button beside “Wireless Mode” option, the wireless site survey window will pop up with a list of available wireless networks around. Select the AP you would like to connect and click “Selected” to establish connection. Figure 23 Site Survey VAP Profile Settings Available in AP mode, EKI-6331AN allows up to 16 virtual SSIDs on a single BSSID and to configure different profile settings such as security and VLAN ID to each SSID. To create a virtual AP, you may check the Enable box of the profile and click on the profile (eg. Profile 2) to configure wireless and security settings. Hit Apply to active the profile. EKI-6331AN_User Manual_for NCC Page Figure 24 VAP Profile Settings Figure 25 VAP Profile Settings Basic Setting Profile Name: Name of the VAP profile Wireless Network Name: Enter the virtual SSID for the VAP Broadcast SSID: In AP mode, hiding network name is necessary when you are in a wireless environment that may have potential risk. By disabling broadcast SSID, the STA cannot scan and find EKI-6331AN, so that malicious attack by some illegal STA could be avoided. Wireless Separation: Wireless separation is an ideal way to enhance the security of network transmission. Under the mode except wireless client mode, enable “Wireless Separation” can EKI-6331AN_User Manual_for NCC Page prevent the communication among associated wireless clients. WMM Support: WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) is a subset of 802.11e. It allows wireless communication to define a priority limit on the basis of data type under AP mode only, thus those time-sensitive data, like video/audio data, may own a higher priority than common one. To enable WMM, the wireless client should also support it Max. Station Number: By checking the “Max. Station Num” EKI-6331AN will allow up to 32 wireless clients to associate with. By disabling the checkbox EKI-6331AN will allow up to 128 clients to connect, but it is likely to cause network congestion or poor performance. Security Setting: To prevent unauthorized radios from accessing data transmitting over the connectivity, EKI-6331AN provides you with rock solid security settings. EKI-6331AN_User Manual_for NCC Page VLAN Tab If your network uses VLANs, you can assign one SSID to a VLAN, and client devices using the SSID are grouped in that VLAN. To allow users on the VLAN to access the WEB page of EKI-6331AN, you need to enable “Enable 802.1Q VLAN” and assign a management VLAN ID for your device. Make sure the assigned management VLAN ID is identical to your network VLAN ID to avoid failures of accessing the Web page of EKI-6331AN. Figure 26 Management VLAN ID EKI-6331AN_User Manual_for NCC Page Chapter 4 Advanced Settings Advanced Wireless Settings Open “Advanced Settings” in “Wireless” to make advanced wireless settings. Figure 27 Advanced Wireless Settings A-MPDU/A-MSDU Aggregation The data rate of your EKI-6331AN except wireless client mode could be enhanced greatly with this option enabled; however, if your wireless clients don’t support A-MPDU/A-MSDU aggregation, it is not recommended to enable it. Short GI Under 802.11n mode, enable it to obtain better data rate if there is no negative compatibility issue. RTS Threshold EKI-6331AN sends RTS (Request to Send) frames to certain receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, that STA responds with a CTS (Clear to Send) frame to acknowledge the right to start transmission. The setting range is 0 to 2346 in byte. Setting it too low may result in poor network performance. Leave it at its default of 2346 is recommended. EKI-6331AN_User Manual_for NCC Page Fragmentation Length Specify the maximum size in byte for a packet before data is fragmented into multiple packets. Setting it too low may result in poor network performance. Leave it at its default of 2346 is recommended. Beacon Interval Specify the frequency interval to broadcast packets. Enter a value between 20 and 1024. DTIM Interval DTIM, which stands for Delivery Traffic Indication Message, is contained in the data packets. It is for enhancing the wireless transmission efficiency. The default is set to 1. Enter a value between 1 and 255. IGMP Snooping Available in AP/Router mode, IGMP snooping is the process of listening to IGMP network traffic. By enabling IGMP snooping, the AP will listen to IGMP membership reports, queries and leave messages to identify the ports that are members of multicast groups. Multicast traffic will only be forwarded to ports identified as members of the specific multicast group or groups. RIFS RIFS (Reduced Interframe Spacing) is a means of reducing overhead and thereby increasing network efficiency. Link Integration Available under AP/Bridge/AP repeater mode, it monitors the connection on the Ethernet port by checking “Enabled”. It can inform the associating wireless clients as soon as the disconnection occurs. TDM Coordination Stands for “Time-Division Multiplexing Technique”, this resource reservation control mechanisms can avoid packet collisions and send the packets much more efficiently allowing for higher effective throughput rates. This function is only available in AP/CPE mode. It is highly recommended to enable TDM coordination when there are multiple CPEs needed to connect to the AP in your application. LAN2LAN CPE LAN2LAN CPE mode enables packet forwarding at layer 2 level. It is fully transparent for all the EKI-6331AN_User Manual_for NCC Page Layer2 protocols. Space in Meter To decrease the chances of data retransmission at long distance, EKI-6331AN can automatically adjust proper ACK timeout value by specifying distance of the two nodes. Flow Control It allows the administrator to specify the incoming and outgoing traffic limit by checking “Enable Traffic Shaping”. This is only available in Router mode. Note: We strongly recommend you leave most advanced settings at their defaults except “Distance in Meters” adjusted the parameter for real distance; any modification on them may negatively impact the performance of your wireless network.
