Antenna DiversityThere are some limitations for using different antennas and Tx/Rx diversity:●If Best antenna diversity is used for Tx or Rx, then the same antenna model must be used as left and right antennas. In addition, if cables are used to connect external antennas, the cables must be of the same length and similar attenuation. If these rules are not respected, antenna diversity will not function properly and there will be degradation in the link budget in both directions. ●You can choose to install only one antenna provided that both Tx and Rx diversity are configured to use that antenna and only that antenna. You can choose to install one antenna for 11b/g band and one antenna for 11a band, provided that the antenna diversity is configured appropriately on both radios. >Operation in the European Community and rest of the world may be dependant on securing local licenses, certifications, and regulatory approvals.

Based on a third generation WLAN topology, the Standalone Access Point makes wireless practical for small and medium-scale enterprises (SME). This solution provides the security and manageability required by enterprises and service providers alike.The Standalone Access Point is a dual-band access point, with IEEE 802.11a+b/g radios, which implements the following features: ●A standalone access point entry solution for the SME market●End-to-end solution for wireless real-time IP communication and HiPath integration●Seamless mobility ●Best-in-class voice quality, multimedia enabled●Strong SME level security●Ease of deployment and operation3.1 Understanding conventional wireless LANsWireless communication between two or more computers requires that each computer is equipped with a receiver/transmitter—a WLAN Network Interface Card (NIC)—capable of exchanging digital information over a common radio frequency. This is called an ad hoc configuration. An ad hoc network allows wireless devices to communicate with each other. This is known as an Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS).An alternative to the ad hoc configuration is the use of an access point. This may be a dedicated hardware router or a computer running special software. Computers and other wireless devices communicate with each other through this access point. The IEEE 802.11 standard defines an access point as a device that allows other wireless devices to communicate with a distribution system. This is known as a Basic Service Set (BSS) or an infrastructure network.For the wireless devices to communicate with computers on a wired network, the access points must be connected into the wired network, and provide access to the networked computers. This is called bridging. Clearly, there are security issues and management scalability issues in this arrangement.

These are based on standard wireless network security practices. Current wireless network security methods provide a degree of protection. These methods include an open system that rely on Service Set Identifiers (SSIDs).The Standalone Access Point supports the following encryption approaches:●Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) – A security protocol for wireless local area networks defined in the IEEE 802.11b standard that provides static key management, and WEP 40-bit, 104-bit, and 128-bit ciphers. The WEP protocol provides minimal security.●Wi-Fi Protected Access version 1 (WPA v.1) – A security protocol with Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) that provides Pre-shared Master Key management, and a WEP 128-bit cipher. The WPA v.1 protocol provides good security.●Wi-Fi Protected Access version 2 (WPA v.2) – A security protocol with Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) that provides Pre-shared Master Key management, and an AES 128-bit cipher. The WPA v.2 protocol provides the best security. It is highly recommended to use WPA v.2.●Media Access Control address(MAC) – In addition, MAC address filters are used in securing the network. Authentication by MAC address provides a method of access control for a user as it associates with the access point based on the device's MAC address.802.11 IP packet transmission 802.11 beacon & probe, wireless device associates with a Standalone Access Point by its SSIDDHCP ServerEthernet SwitchRouterWireless Device Wireless DeviceStandalone Access Point

About the HiPath Wireless Standalone Access Point A31003-W1110-U100-1-7619, DRAFT February 200748 HiPath Wireless Standalone Access Point V1.0, User Guide HSAAP_Intro.fmAbout clustering3.3.3 About Quality of ServiceThe Standalone Access Point provides advanced Quality of Service (QoS) management in order to provide better network traffic flow. Such standards include:●WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) – Enabled per VNS on the Standalone Access Point. For devices with WMM or 802.1e enabled, the standard provides multimedia enhancements for audio, video, and voice applications. WMM and 802.11e shorten the time between transmitting packets for higher priority traffic.●IP ToS (Type of Service) or DSCP (Diffserve Codepoint) – The ToS/DSCP field in the IP header of a frame is used to indicate the priority and QoS for each frame.●802.11e – If enabled, the Standalone Access Point will accept 802.11e client associations, and will classify and prioritize the downlink traffic for all 802.11e clients. 802.11e clients will also classify and prioritize the uplink traffic.When Priority Override is enabled, the configured User Priority will determine the transmit queue and the user priority for the wireless QoS packets (WMM or 802.11e) in the downlink direction. The User Priority value is also used to tag the VLAN Priority field for the uplink traffic if the VLAN tagging is enabled for this VNS.3.4 About clusteringThe Standalone Access Point must operate in cluster setup. The purpose of the cluster is to limit the number of access points in it, and to enable roaming. Secure Inter-Access Point Protocol (SIAPP) is used to build cluster information in each access point. All access points in the same roaming cluster must be on the same subnet.3.4.1 Forming a clusterA cluster is formed when an access point is connected with one or more additional access points. A cluster is identified by the cluster name, based on the SSID. All Standalone Access Points within the cluster have a common cluster name. An access point can have a state of either Master, Slave, or Register. In a cluster, one access point must be in the Master state. The number of access points in the cluster at any time cannot be larger than ten, including the Master and Slave state access points, and their radios are enabled. The radios are disabled for all Register state access points. The access point in the Master state broadcasts an update packet periodically, which contains the list of the access points currently registered with the cluster. The first access point listed is the Master, then the first Slave, the second Slave, and so on.

(A thin access point handles the radio frequency (RF) communication but relies on a controller to handle WLAN elements such as authentication.) The Standalone Access Point also provides local processing such as encryption. The Standalone Access Point is a dual-band access point, with 802.11a+b/g radios.Ad-hoc mode An 802.11 networking framework in which devices or stations communicate directly with each other, without the use of an access point (AP). (Compare Infrastructure Mode)AES Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)An algorithm for encryption that works at multiple network layers simultaneously. As a block cipher, AES encrypts data in fixed-size blocks of 128 bits. AES was created by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). AES is a privacy transform for IPSec and Internet Key Exchange (IKE). AES has a variable key length - the algorithm can specify a 128-bit key (the default), a 192-bit key, or a 256-bit key. For the WPA2/802.11i implementation of AES, a 128 bit key length is used. AES encryption includes 4 stages that make up one round. Each round is then iterated 10, 12 or 14 times depending upon the bit-key size. For the WPA2/802.11i implementation of AES, each round is iterated 10 times. AES-CCMP AES uses the Counter-Mode/CBC-MAC Protocol (CCMP). CCM is a new mode of operation for a block cipher that enables a single key to be used for both encryption and authentication. The two underlying modes employed in CCM include Counter mode (CTR) that achieves data encryption and Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Code (CBC-MAC) to provide data integrity.

A protocol used to obtain the physical addresses (such as MAC addresses) of hardware units in a network environment. A host obtains such a physical address by broadcasting an ARP request, which contains the IP address of the target hardware unit. If the request finds a unit with that IP address, the unit replies with its physical hardware address.Association A connection between a wireless device and an access point.BSS Basic Service Set.A wireless topology consisting of one Access Point connected to a wired network and a set of wireless devices. Also called an infrastructure network. See also IBSS.Collision Two Ethernet packets attempting to use the medium simultaneously. Ethernet is a shared media, so there are rules for sending packets of data to avoid conflicts and protect data integrity. When two nodes at different locations attempt to send data at the same time, a collision will result. Segmenting the network with bridges or switches is one way of reducing collisions in an overcrowded network.Datagram A datagram is "a self-contained, independent entity of data carrying sufficient information to be routed from the source to the destination computer without reliance on earlier exchanges between this source and destination computer and the transporting network." (RFC1594). The term has been generally replaced by the term packet. Datagrams or packets are the message units that the Internet Protocol deals with and that the Internet transports. DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol.A protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses. DHCP consists of two components: a protocol for delivering host-specific configuration parameters from a DHCP server to a host and a mechanism for allocation of network addresses to hosts. (IETF RFC1531.)Option 78 specifies the location of one or more SLP Directory Agents. Option 79 specifies the list of scopes that a SLP Agent is configured to use.(RFC2610 - DHCP Options for Service Location Protocol)Term Definition

The chipping code is a redundant bit pattern for each bit that is transmitted, which increases the signal's resistance to interference. If one or more bits in the pattern are damaged during transmission, the original data can be recovered due to the redundancy of the transmission. (Compare FHSS)DTIM Delivery Traffic Indication Message (in 802.11 standard)EAP-TLSEAP-TTLSEAP-TLS Extensible Authentication Protocol - Transport Layer Security. A general protocol for authentication that also supports multiple authentication methods, such as token cards, Kerberos, one-time passwords, certificates, public key authentication and smart cards. IEEE 802.1x specifies how EAP should be encapsulated in LAN frames.In wireless communications using EAP, a user requests connection to a WLAN through an access point, which then requests the identity of the user and transmits that identity to an authentication server such as RADIUS. The server asks the access point for proof of identity, which the access point gets from the user and then sends back to the server to complete the authentication. EAP-TLS provides for certificate-based and mutual authentication of the client and the network. It relies on client-side and server-side certificates to perform authentication and can be used to dynamically generate user-based and session-based WEP keys.EAP-TTLS (Tunneled Transport Layer Security) is an extension of EAP-TLS to provide certificate-based, mutual authentication of the client and network through an encrypted tunnel, as well as to generate dynamic, per-user, per-session WEP keys. Unlike EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS requires only server-side certificates. (See also PEAP)ELA (OPSEC) Event Logging API (Application Program Interface) for OPSEC, a module in Check Point used to enable third-party applications to log events into the Check Point VPN-1/FireWall-1 management system. ESS Extended Service Set (ESS). Several Basic Service Sets (BSSs) can be joined together to form one logical WLAN segment, referred to as an extended service set (ESS). The SSID is used to identify the ESS. (See BSS and SSID.)Term Definition

A transmission technology used in Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) transmissions where the data signal is modulated with a narrowband carrier signal that "hops" in a random but predictable sequence from frequency to frequency as a function of time over a wide band of frequencies. This technique reduces interference. If synchronized properly, a single logical channel is maintained. (Compare DSSS)Fit, thin and fat APsA thin AP architecture uses two components: an access point that is essentially a stripped-down radio and a centralized management controller that handles the other WLAN system functions. Wired network switches are also required. A fit AP, a variation of the thin AP, handles the RF and encryption, while the central management controller, aware of the wireless users' identities and locations, handles secure roaming, quality of service, and user authentication. The central management controller also handles AP configuration and management. A fat (or thick) AP architecture concentrates all the WLAN intelligence in the access point. The AP handles the radio frequency (RF) communication, as well as authenticating users, encrypting communications, secure roaming, WLAN management, and in some cases, network routing. FTP File Transfer ProtocolGateway In the wireless world, an access point with additional software capabilities such as providing NAT and DHCP. Gateways may also provide VPN support, roaming, firewalls, various levels of security, etc. GUI Graphical User InterfaceHost (1) A computer (usually containing data) that is accessed by a user working on a remote terminal, connected by modems and telephone lines.

ICMP supports packets containing error, control, and informational messages. The PING command, for example, uses ICMP to test an Internet connection.ICV ICV (Integrity Check Value) is a 4-byte code appended in standard WEP to the 802.11 message. Enhanced WPA inserts an 8-byte MIC just before the ICV.

In infrastructure mode, wireless devices can communicate with each other or can communicate with a wired network. (See ad-hoc mode and BSS.)Internet or IP telephony IP or Internet telephony are communications, such as voice, facsimile, voice-messaging applications, that are transported over the Internet, rather than the public switched telephone network (PSTN). IP telephony is the two-way transmission of audio over a packet-switched IP network (TCP/IP network). An Internet telephone call has two steps: (1) converting the analog voice signal to digital format, (2) translating the signal into Internet protocol (IP) packets for transmission over the Internet. At the receiving end, the steps are reversed. Over the public Internet, voice quality varies considerably. Protocols that support Quality of Service (QoS) are being implemented to improve this.IP Internet Protocol is the method or protocol by which data is sent from one computer to another on the Internet. Each computer (host) on the Internet has at least one IP address that uniquely identifies it. Internet Protocol specifies the format of packets, also called datagrams, and the addressing scheme. Most networks combine IP with a higher-level protocol called Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), which establishes a virtual connection between a destination and a source.Isochronous dataIsochronous data is data (such as voice or video) that requires a constant transmission rate, where data must be delivered within certain time constraints. For example, multimedia streams require an isochronous transport mechanism to ensure that data is delivered as fast as it is displayed and to ensure that the audio is synchronized with the video. Compare: asynchronous processes in which data streams can be broken by random intervals, and synchronous processes, in which data streams can be delivered only at specific intervals. Term Definition

WPA with TKIP uses 48-bit IVs, an enhancement that significantly increases the difficulty in cracking the encryption. (See WPA and TKIP)LAN Local Area Network.MAC Media Access Control layer. One of two sublayers that make up the Data Link Layer of the OSI model. The MAC layer is responsible for moving data packets to and from one Network Interface Card (NIC) to another across a shared channel.MAC address Media Access Control address. A hardware address that uniquely identifies each node of a network.MIC Message Integrity Check or Code (MIC), also called "Michael", is part of WPA and TKIP. The MIC is an additional 8-byte code inserted before the standard 4-byte integrity check value (ICV) that is appended in by standard WEP to the 802.11 message. This greatly increases the difficulty in carrying out forgery attacks. Both integrity check mechanisms are calculated by the receiver and compared against the values sent by the sender in the frame. If the values match, there is assurance that the message has not been tampered with. (See WPA, TKIP and ICV).MTU Maximum Transmission Unit. The largest packet size, measured in bytes, that a network interface is configured to accept. Any messages larger than the MTU are divided into smaller packets before being sent. MU Mobile Unit, a wireless device such as a PC laptop.multicast, broadcast, unicastMulticast: transmitting a single message to a select group of recipients. Broadcast: sending a message to everyone connected to a network. Unicast: communication over a network between a single sender and a single receiver. Netmask In administering Internet sites, a netmask is a string of 0's and 1's that mask or screen out the network part of an IP address, so that only the host computer part of the address remains. A frequently-used netmask is 255.255.255.0, used for a Class C subnet (one with up to 255 host computers). The ".0" in the "255.255.255.0" netmask allows the specific host computer address to be visible. NIC Network Interface Card.An expansion board in a computer that connects the computer to a network.

The NMS talks to network management agents, which reside in the managed nodes. OFDM Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, a method of digital modulation in which a signal is split into several narrowband channels at different frequencies. OFDM is similar to conventional frequency division multiplexing (FDM). The difference lies in the way in which the signals are modulated and demodulated. Priority is given to minimizing the interference, or crosstalk, among the channels and symbols comprising the data stream. Less importance is placed on perfecting individual channels. OFDM is used in European digital audio broadcast services. It is also used in wireless local area networks. OS Operating system.OSI Open System Interconnection. An ISO standard for worldwide communications that defines a networking framework for implementing protocols in seven layers. Control is passed from one layer to the next, starting at the application layer in one station, down through the presentation, session, transport, network, data link layer to the physical layer at the bottom, over the channel to the next station and back up the hierarchy.OSI Layer 2 At the Data Link layer (OSI Layer 2), data packets are encoded and decoded into bits. The data link layer has two sublayers: ●the Logical Link Control (LLC) layer controls frame synchronization, flow control and error checking●The Media Access Control (MAC) layer controls how a computer on the network gains access to the data and permission to transmit it. OSI Layer 3 The Network layer (OSI Layer 3) provides switching and routing technologies, creating logical paths, known as virtual circuits, for transmitting data from node to node. Routing and forwarding are functions of this layer, as well as addressing, internetworking, error handling, congestion control and packet sequencing.OUI Organizationally Unique Identifier (used in MAC addressing).Term Definition

When any file is sent from one place to another on the Internet, the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) layer of TCP/IP divides the file into packets. Each packet is separately numbered and includes the Internet address of the destination. The individual packets for a given file may travel different routes through the Internet. When they have all arrived, they are reassembled into the original file (by the TCP layer at the receiving end). PDU Protocol Data Unit. A data object exchanged by protocol machines (such as management stations, SMUX peers, and SNMP agents) and consisting of both protocol control information and user data. PDU is sometimes used as a synonym for "packet''. PKI Public Key InfrastructurePoE Power over Ethernet.

If so, the computer begins its boot sequence.push-to-talk (PTT)The push-to-talk (PTT) is feature on wireless telephones that allows them to operate like a walkie-talkie in a group, instead of standard telephone operation. The PTT feature requires that the network be configured to allow multicast traffic. A PTT call is initiated by selecting a channel and pressing the "talk" key on the wireless telephone. All wireless telephones on the same network that are monitoring the channel will hear the transmission. On a PTT call you hold the button to talk and release it to listen.QoS Quality of Service. A term for a number of techniques that intelligently match the needs of specific applications to the network resources available, using such technologies as Frame Relay, Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Ethernet and 802.1 networks, SONET, and IP-routed networks. QoS features provide better network service by supporting dedicated bandwidth, improving loss characteristics, avoiding and managing network congestion, shaping network traffic, setting traffic priorities across the network.

Several BSSs can be joined together to form one logical WLAN segment, referred to as an extended service set (ESS). The SSID is used to identify the ESS. In 802.11 networks, each access point advertises its presence several times per second by broadcasting beacon frames that carry the ESS name (SSID). Stations discover APs by listening for beacons, or by sending probe frames to search for an access point with a desired SSID. When the station locates an appropriately-named access point, it sends an associate request frame containing the desired SSID. The access point replies with an associate response frame, also containing the SSID. Some APs can be configured to send a zero-length broadcast SSID in beacon frames instead of sending their actual SSID. The access point must return its actual SSID in the probe response.Subnet mask (See netmask)Subnets Portions of networks that share the same common address format. A subnet in a TCP/IP network uses the same first three sets of numbers (such as 198.63.45.xxx), leaving the fourth set to identify devices on the subnet. A subnet can be used to increase the bandwidth on the network by breaking the network up into segments.SVP SpectraLink Voice Protocol, a protocol developed by SpectraLink to be implemented on access points in order to facilitate voice prioritization over an 802.11 wireless LAN that will carry voice packets from SpectraLink wireless telephones.Switch In networks, a device that filters and forwards packets between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer (layer 2) and sometimes the network layer (layer 3) of the OSI Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs.TCP / IP Transmission Control Protocol.TCP, together with IP (Internet Protocol), is the basic communication language or protocol of the Internet. Transmission Control Protocol manages the assembling of a message or file into smaller packets that are transmitted over the Internet and received by a TCP layer that reassembles the packets into the original message. Internet Protocol handles the address part of each packet so that it gets to the right destination. TCP/IP uses the client/server model of communication in which a computer user (a client) requests and is provided a service (such as sending a Web page) by another computer (a server) in the network.

It is used where user authentication and directory visibility are not required. TFTP uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) rather than the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). TFTP is described formally in Request for Comments (RFC) 1350. TKIP Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) is an enhancement to the WEP encryption technique that uses a set of algorithms that rotates the session keys. TKIP's enhanced encryption includes a per-packet key mixing function, a message integrity check (MIC), an extended initialization vector (IV) with sequencing rules, and a re-keying mechanism. The encryption keys are changed (rekeyed) automatically and authenticated between devices after the rekey interval (either a specified period of time, or after a specified number of packets has been transmitted).ToS / DSCP ToS (Type of Service) / DSCP (Diffserve Codepoint). The ToS/DSCP field contained in the IP header of a frame is used by applications to indicate the priority and Quality of Service (QoS) for each frame. The level of service is determined by a set of service parameters which provide a three way trade-off between low-delay, high-reliability, and high-throughput. The use of service parameters may increase the cost of service. TSN Transition Security Network.A subset of Robust Security Network (RSN), which provides an enhanced security solution for legacy hardware. The Wi-Fi Alliance has adopted a solution called Wireless Protected Access (WPA), based on TSN. RSN and TSN both specify IEEE 802.1x authentication with Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP).Tunnelling Tunnelling (or encapsulation) is a technology that enables one network to send its data via another network's connections. Tunnelling works by encapsulating packets of a network protocol within packets carried by the second network. The receiving device then decapsulates the packets and forwards them in their original format.UDP User Datagram Protocol.A connectionless protocol that, like TCP, runs on top of IP networks. Unlike TCP/IP, UDP/IP provides very few error recovery services, offering instead a direct way to send and receive packets over an IP network. It is used primarily for broadcasting messages over a network.Term Definition

With VoIP, a voice transmission is cut into multiple packets, takes the most efficient path along the Internet and is reassembled when it reaches the destination.VPN Virtual Private Network.A private network that is constructed by using public wires to connect nodes. These systems use encryption and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.WEP Wired Equivalent Privacy.A security protocol for wireless local area networks (WLANs) defined in the 802.11b standard. WEP aims to provide security by encrypting data over radio waves so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one end point to another.Term Definition

WINS Windows Internet Naming Service.A system that determines the IP address associated with a particular network computer, called name resolution. WINS supports network client and server computers running Windows and can provide name resolution for other computers with special arrangements. WINS supports dynamic addressing (DHCP) by maintaining a distributed database that is automatically updated with the names of computers currently available and the IP address assigned to each one.DNS is an alternative system for name resolution suitable for network computers with fixed IP addresses. WLAN Wireless Local Area Network.WMM Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM), a Wi-Fi Alliance certified standard that provides multimedia enhancements for Wi-Fi networks that improve the user experience for audio, video, and voice applications. This standard is compliant with the IEEE 802.11e Quality of Service (QoS) extensions for 802.11 networks. WMM provides prioritized media access by shortening the time between transmitting packets for higher priority traffic. WMM is based on the Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) method. WPA Wireless Protected Access, or Wi-Fi Protected Access.Is a security solution adopted by the Wi-Fi Alliance that adds authentication to WEP's basic encryption. For authentication, WPA specifies IEEE 802.1x authentication with Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). For encryption, WPA uses the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) mechanism, which shares a starting key between devices, and then changes their encryption key for every packet. Certificate Authentication (CA) can also be used. Also part of the encryption mechanism are 802.1X for dynamic key distribution and Message Integrity Check (MIC) a.k.a. "Michael".WPA requires that all computers and devices have WPA software. WPA-PSK Wi-Fi Protected Access with Pre-Shared Key, a special mode of WPA for users without an enterprise authentication server. Instead, for authentication, a Pre-Shared Key is used. The PSK is a shared secret (passphrase) that must be entered in both the wireless access point or router and the WPA clients. This preshared key should be a random sequence of characters at least 20 characters long or hexadecimal digits (numbers 0-9 and letters A-F) at least 24 hexadecimal digits long. After the initial shared secret, the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) handles the encryption and automatic rekeying.Term Definition
