The following topics are covered in this chapter: q BASIC Ø LAN Ø WIRELESS Ø ADVANCED q TOOLS Ø Admin Ø Time Ø System Ø Firmware q STATUS Ø Device Info Ø WIRELESS Ø Logs Ø Statistics MOXA AirWorks AWK-1200-AC User’s Manual Web Console Configuration BASIC LAN These are the IP address settings of the LAN (Local Area Network) for the AWK-1200-AC. The AWK-1200-A C’s Local Area Network (LAN) settings are configured based on the IP Address and Subnet Mask assigned in this section. The IP address is also used to access this web-based management interface. We recommend using the default settings if you do not have an existing network. IP Address Mode Select DHCP to get the IP settings from a DHCP server on your network. Select Static to use the IP settings specified on this page. IP Address This is the IP address of the AC on the local area network. Your local area network settings are based on the address assigned here. For example, 192.168.1.1. Subnet Mask This is the subnet mask of your AWK-1200-A C on the local area network. Default Gateway This is the IP address of the gateway that connects you to the Iinternet. WIRELESS The section is where you configure the wireless settings for your Access Point. Please note that changes made in this section may also need to be duplicated on your Wireless Client. To protect your privacy, use the wireless security mode to configure the wireless security features. This device supports the wireless security modes WEP and WPA Personal. WEP is the original wireless encryption standard. WPA provides a higher level of security. Enable Wireless Radio This option turns off and on the wireless connection feature of the AWK-1200-A C. When you select this option, the following parameters are d isplayed. 3-2 MOXA AirWorks AWK-1200-AC User’s Manual Web Console Configuration Wireless Mode Select Infrastructure to connect to a wireless (AP) Access Point. Select Ad-hoc to connect to another AC or wireless station. Wireless Network Name This is the name of the wireless access point with which this station will be associated. Leave this field blank to associate with any access point. Channel (Ad-hoc mode only) A wireless network uses specific channels in the 2.4 GHz wireless spectrum to handle communication between clients. Some channels in your area may have interference from other electronic devices. Your AWK-1200-AC will use the channel that is used by the access point with which it is associated. However, you can select your channel preference to help optimize the performance and coverage of your wireless network. Transmission Rate By default the fastest possible transmission rate will be selected. If necessary, you have the option of selecting a different rate. 802.11 Mode If all of your devices can connect in 802.11g Mode, you can change the mode to 802.11g only. If you have some devices that are 802.11b, leave the setting at Mixed. Super G? Mode Super G without Turbo: Performance enhancing features such as Packet Bursting, FastFrames, and Compression. Security Mode — WEP WEP is a method of encrypting data for wireless communication, and is intended to provide the same level of privacy as a wired network. However, WEP is not as secure as WPA encryption. To gain access to a WEP network, you must know the key. The key is a string of characters that you create. When using WEP, you must determine the level of encryption. The type of encryption determines the key length. 128-bit encryption requires a longer key than 64-bit encryption. Keys are defined by entering a string in HEX (hexadecimal - using characters 0-9, A-F) or ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange - alphanumeric characters) format. ASCII format is provided so that you can enter a string that is easier to remember. The ASCII string is converted to HEX for use over the network. Four keys can be defined so that you can change keys easily. A default key is selected for use on the network. Example: 64-bit hexadecimal keys are exactly 10 characters in length. (12345678FA is a valid string of 10 characters for 64-bit encryption.) 128-bit hexadecimal keys are exactly 26 characters in length. (456FBCDF123400122225271730 is a valid string of 26 characters for 128-bit encryption.) 64-bit ASCII keys are up to 5 characters in length (DMODE is a valid string of 5 characters for 64-bit encryption.) 128-bit ASCII keys are up to 13 characters in length (2002HALOSWIN1 is a valid string of 13 characters for 128-bit encryption.) 3-3 MOXA AirWorks AWK-1200-AC User’s Manual Web Console Configuration — WPA-Personal This option selects Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), which uses security standards published by the Wi-Fi Alliance. This option uses Wi-Fi Protected Access with a Pre-Shared Key (PSK). The WPA Mode further refines the variant that the AWK-1200-A C should employ. WPA Mode WPA is the older standard. Select this option if the Access Point that will be used with the AWK-1200-A C only supports the older standard. WPA2 is the newer implementation of the stronger IEEE 802.11i security standard. With the “WPA2” option, the AWK-1200-A C associates only with access points that also support WPA2 security. Cipher Type The encryption algorithm used to secure the data communication. TKIP Use TKIP only. TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) provides per-packet key generation and is based on WEP. AES Use AES only. AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a very secure block based on encryption. Note that if the AWK-1200-AC uses the AES option, the AWK-1200-A C can associate with the access point only if the access point is also set to use only AES. Pre-Shared Key The key is entered as a pass-phrase of up to 63 alphanumeric characters in ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) format at both ends of the wireless connection. It cannot be shorter than eight characters, although for proper security it needs to be of ample length and should not be a commonly known phrase. This phrase is used to generate session keys that are unique for each wireless client. Example: Wireless Networking technology enables ubiquitous communication. ADVANCED MAC Cloning Mode This feature controls the MAC Address of the AWK-1200-AC as seen by other devices (wired or wireless). If set to Ethernet Client, the MAC Address from the first Ethernet client that transmits data through the AWK-1200-AC will be used. This setting is useful when connected to an Xbox or if there is only one Ethernet device connected to the AWK-1200-AC. When multiple Ethernet devices are connected to the AWK-1200-A C, it may not be obvious which MAC Address is being used. If set to WLAN Card, the MAC Address of the WLAN Card (typically written on the back of the card) will be used. When multiple Ethernet devices are connected to the AWK-1200-AC, the MAC Address of the AWK-1200-A C will not change. 3-4 MOXA AirWorks AWK-1200-AC User’s Manual Web Console Configuration Fragmentation Threshold This setting should remain at its default value of 2346. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may result in poor performance. RTS Threshold This setting should remain at its default value of 2346. If you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications to the value are recommended. 802.11d Enable Enables 802.11d operation. 802.11d is a wireless specification for operation in multiple regulatory domains. This supplement to the 802.11 specifications defines the physical layer requirements (channelization, hopping patterns, new values for current MIB attributes, and other requirements to extend the operation of 802.11 WLANs in multiple regulatory domains, or countries). The current 802.11 standard defines operation in only a fixed regulatory domain (country). This supplement adds the requirements and definitions necessary to allow 802.11 WLAN equipment to operate in multiple markets. Enable this option if you are traveling and operating in several regulatory domains. Transmit Power Normally, the wireless transmitter operates at 100% power. In some circumstances, however, there might be a need to isolate specific frequencies to a smaller area. By reducing the power of the radio, you can prevent transmissions from reaching beyond your corporate/home office or designated wireless area. TOOLS Admin The Admin option is used to set a password for access to the web-based management system. By default, the password is not configured. We highly recommend that you create a password to keep your new AWK-1200-AC secure. 3-5 MOXA AirWorks AWK-1200-AC User’s Manual Web Console Configuration Admin Password Enter a password for the user admin.
