DW-1150
Wireless Lan Access Point
User’s Guide
-1-
Introduction
The DW-1100/DW-1150 (IEEE 802.11b compatible 11 Mbps WLAN Access Point) is a
long-range, high performance LAN product, which provides Access Point services to a 2.4
GHz RF network and bridges to an Ethernet backbone. DW-1100/DW-1150 is a highly
integrated Access Point designed to combine legacy LANs with wireless LANs.
DW-1100/DW-1150 performs all the necessary inter-networking and bridging functions. It
receives data from both networks, stores them locally for further processing, installs and
maintains connections and transmits the packets to the proper destination. This User
Guide describes the steps required for the initial set up of the AP IP address, the AP
configuration, and the firmware upgrade procedure. The description includes the
implementation of the above steps through both Ethernet and USB.

AP Configuration
The DW-1100 AP configuration can be done through the Ethernet port either by using the
SNMP Manager application or through the USB port by using the AP Utility Application. In
order to configure the DW-1100/DW-1150 AP through the Ethernet Port/Wireless Port, you
must first install the SNMP Manager application, which is a powerful and reliable tool used
for the remote configuration of the Access Point through the Ethernet Port/Wireless Port. In
order to install the SNMP Manager you need to run the program “setup.exe” which you will
find in the “Utilities” folder in your CD. Follow the instructions of the set-up program and
select the directory where the application will be installed. Finally, a window appears
indicating the completion of the installation.

3.
On the Start Menu, choose Start -> Programs -> SNMP Manager.
File menu: When the application opens, under the File Menu there are the following
submenus:
Connect to AP - Using this submenu you can directly connect with the Access Point by
typing its IP Address in the panel that appears and at the Community field, type
"public" and then press OK (Figure 1).

In case of a successful connection to the Access Point, the following window appears.
Press “OK” (Figure 2).

In case of an unsuccessful connection you receive the following message (Figure 3):
Figure 3 Access Point Not Found
6.
If the above error message appears, you need to check if the AP is connected to the
network.
Configuring the AP using SNMP
1. When the connection has been successfully established, you get a message in the left
bottom corner indicating, “Get Configuration done” and on the right bottom corner the
“IP Address” of the connected Access Point.
2. File menu: The file menu contains the following enabled submenus
Close Connection AP - Terminates the connection with the Access Point.
Download Changes - When all the desired values of the parameters have been set
you are able to download the changes (save the changes) to the Access Point by
selecting this submenu.
Options - Defines the polling interval according to which the SNMP Manager polls
the Access point in order to update the statistics and the Associated Stations List.
3. Setup menu: As soon as the connection has been established, you are able to start
viewing or setting the Access Point parameters. Under the “Setup” menu, there are the
following submenus:

Figure 4 SNMP Bridge menu and submenus
Bridge - Under the “Bridge” submenu, the only option is:
IP Configuration: By choosing this option the window appears. The “IP Address”
and “IP Mask” can be modified through “IP Configuration”. If changes are made,
you need to “Download Changes” under the “File” menu in order to save them.
Please refer to Table 1 and Figure 5

Wireless LAN - Under this submenu there are the following two options available.
Privacy Options - By choosing this option you must define the encryption key
values of your choice. There are four 5 Hex digit encryption keys available. The
key is enabled only if you select it in the “Default key” option. Enable the WEP
option in order to activate WEP encryption for transmissions between the station
sand the Access Point. (Figure 6 and Figure 7)
Note: The encryption level must be the same on the wireless station and on the
access point. All shared keys on the wireless station must be the same as those on
the access point with which the client station is associated.

Figure 7 Wireless Privacy Options window
Operational Settings - Using this option, you can either view or modify the Wireless
LAN parameters of the Access Point (Figure 4-10). These parameters are described
below:
ESSID
It is an ASCII string up to 32 characters and it is used to
identify a WLAN that prevents the unintentional merging of
two co-located WLANs. The ESSID value must be the
same in all stations and Access point in the extended
WLAN. Select the ESSID to be used.
Channel
There are 14 channels available. The channels differ from
country to country. Select the channel to be used.
Fragmentation
threshold
The size at which packets will be fragmented. Choose a
setting within a range of 256 to 2346 bytes.
RTS Threshold
Minimum packet size to require an RTS (Request To Send).
For packets smaller than this threshold, an RTS is not sent
and the packet is transmitted directly to the WLAN. This is
the option for the RTS Threshold activation.
Authentication Type
Select Open System, Shared Key, or Both
Open System: With this setting, any station in the
WLAN can associate with an Access Point and receive
and transmitted data (null authentication)
Shared Key: With this setting only stations using a
-7-
shared key encryption identified by the Access Point
are allowed to associate with it.
Both: with this setting, stations communicate with the
Access Point either with or without data encryption.
Preamble Type
(Short/Long)
Preamble is the first sub-field of PPDU, which is the
appropriate frame format for transmission to PHY (Physical
layer). There are two options, Short Preamble and Long
Preamble. The Short Preamble option improves throughput
performance.
Rate:
By default, the unit adaptively selects the highest possible
rate for transmission. Select the basic rates to be used
among the following options 1/2 (Mpbs), 1/2/5.5/11 (Mbps).
Auto Rate Fall Back
When this is enabled, the transmission rate is the optimum
rate. In case of obstacles or interference, the system will
automatically fall back.
Regulatory Domain
The value of this field is already set and cannot be
modified.
Figure 8 Wireless Operational Settings window
Enable SNMP traps - Using this submenu you can either enable or disable SNMP
traps, which are messages displayed in the right bottom corner of the main window
indicating that an action related to the AP took place. Permitted messages are:
Trap Reassociation: This trap message is sent when a Station’s reassociation
request is received from the AP - Bridge.
-8-
Trap Association: Indicates the reception of an association request packet and
the sender Station's successful association with the Wireless Bridge.
Trap Disassociation: This trap message is sent when a disassociation
notification packet is received from a Station.
Trap Reset: This trap message is sent when the AP-Bridge resets.
Trap Setting IP Address with Ping: This trap message is sent when the
AP-Bridge IP address is set with the transmission of a ping message.
Trap Start Up: This trap message is sent when Bridge starts up.
Trap Failed To Erase Flash: This trap message is sent when Bridge fails to erase
flash.
4. Traps menu: Provides information for trap messages
View Record - You can see additional information for every Trap Message
5. Commands menu: Under this menu there are two submenus.
Reset Device - You can reset the Access Point. This action takes place after a
user makes configuration changes in order to initiate the changes.
Restore Default - You can restore the factory default values of the Access Point.
6. Info menu: Using this menu you can view a limited number of statistics
