Chapter 1. Introduction | 7ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual About the ProSafe™ Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320The NETGEAR ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 is the basic building block of a wireless LAN infrastructure. It provides connectivity between Ethernet wired networks and radio-equipped wireless notebook systems, desktop systems, print servers, and other devices.The access point provides wireless connectivity to multiple wireless network devices within a fixed range or area of coverage—interacting with a wireless network interface card (NIC) through an antenna. Typically, an individual in-building access point provides a maximum connectivity area of about a 500 foot radius. Consequently, the NETGEAR ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 can support a small group of users in a range of several hundred feet. Most access points can handle between 10 to 30 users simultaneously.The NETGEAR ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 acts as a bridge between the wired LAN and wireless clients. Connecting multiple ProSafe Wireless Access Points through a wired Ethernet backbone can further increase the wireless network coverage. As a mobile computing device moves out of the range of one access point, it moves into the range of another. As a result, wireless clients can freely roam from one access point to another and still maintain seamless connection to the network.The auto-sensing capability of the NETGEAR ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 allows packet transmission at up to 300 Mbps, or at reduced speeds to compensate for distance or electromagnetic interference.

10 | Chapter 1. Introduction ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual Key Features and StandardsThe ProSafe Wireless Access Point is easy to use and provides solid wireless and networking support. It also offers a wide range of security options.Supported Standards and ConventionsThe following standards and conventions are supported:• Standards Compliance. The wireless access point complies with the IEEE 802.11 b/g standards for wireless LANs, and is WiFi certified for 802.11n draft 2.0 standard.• Full WPA and WPA2 support. The wireless access point provides WPA and WPA2 enterprise-class strong security with RADIUS and certificate authentication as well as dynamic encryption key generation. The WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK preshared key authentication is without the overhead of RADIUS servers but with all of the strong security of WPA.• Multiple BSSIDs. The access point supports multiple BSSIDs. When a product family is connected to a wired network and a set of wireless stations, it is called a Basic Service Set (BSS). The Basic Service Set Identifier (BSSID) is a unique identifier attached to the header of packets sent over a WLAN that differentiates one WLAN from another when a mobile device tries to connect to the network.The multiple BSSID feature allows you to configure up to eight SSIDs per radio mode on your access point and assign different configuration settings to each SSID. All the configured SSIDs are active, and the network devices can connect to the access point by using any of these SSIDs.• DHCP client support. DHCP provides a dynamic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. The access point can act as a client and obtain information from your DHCP server; it can also act as a DHCP server and provide network information for wireless clients.• SNMP Support. Support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Management Information Base (MIB) management.• 802.1Q VLAN (virtual LAN) support. A network of computers that behave as if they are connected to the same network even though they might actually be physically located on different segments of a LAN. VLANs are configured through software rather than hardware, which makes them extremely flexible. VLANs are very useful for user and host management, bandwidth allocation, and resource optimization.
Chapter 1. Introduction | 11ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual Key FeaturesThe WNAP320 Access Point provides solid functionality, including the following features:• Multiple operating modes:-Wireless Access Point. Operates as a standard 802.11b/g/n access point.-Point-to-Point Bridge. In this mode, the access point communicates only with another bridge-mode wireless station or access point. Network authentication should be used to protect this communication. -Point-to-Multi-Point Bridge. Select this only if this access point is the “master” for a group of bridge-mode wireless stations. The other bridge-mode wireless stations send all traffic to this master, and do not communicate directly with each other. Network authentication should be used to protect this traffic. -Wireless Repeater. In this mode, the access point does not function as an access point. It communicates only with Repeater mode, Point-to-Point Bridge mode, and Point-to-Multi-point-bridge-mode wireless stations. Network authentication should be used to protect this communication.• Hotspot settings. You can allow all HTTP (TCP, port 80) requests to be captured and redirected to the URL you specify.• Upgradeable firmware. Firmware is stored in a flash memory, you can upgrade it easily, using only your Web browser, and you can upgrade it remotely. You can also use the command-line interface.• Rogue AP detection. The Rogue AP filtering feature ensures that unknown APs are not given access to any part of the LAN.• Access Control. The Access Control MAC address filtering feature can ensure that only trusted wireless stations can use the access point to gain access to your LAN.• Security profiles. When using multiple BSSIDs, you can configure unique security settings (encryption, SSID, and so on) for each BSSID.• Hidden mode. The SSID is not broadcast, assuring only clients configured with the correct SSID can connect.• Configuration backup. Configuration settings can be backed up to a file and restored.• Secure and economical operation. Adjustable power output allows more secure or economical operation.• Power over Ethernet. Power can be supplied to the access point over the Ethernet port from any 802.3af-compliant mid-span or end-span source.• Autosensing Ethernet connection with Auto Uplink™ interface. Connects to 10/100/1000 Mbps IEEE 802.3 Ethernet networks.• LED indicators. Power, Test, LAN speed, LAN activity, and wireless activity for each radio mode are easily identified.• Wireless Multimedia (WMM) support. WMM is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the kind of data. Time-dependent information, like video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, wireless clients must also support WMM.
12 | Chapter 1. Introduction ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual • Quality of Service (QoS) Support. You can configure parameters that affect traffic flowing from the product family to the client station and traffic flowing from the client station to the product family. The QoS feature allows you to prioritize traffic, such as voice and video traffic, so that packets do not get dropped.• VLAN security profiles. Each security profile is automatically allocated a VLAN ID when the security profile is modified.802.11b/g/n Standards–based Wireless NetworkingThe NETGEAR ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 provides a bridge between Ethernet wired LANs and 802.11b/g and 802.11 draft n–compatible wireless LAN networks. It provides connectivity between Ethernet wired networks and radio-equipped wireless notebook systems, desktop systems, print servers, and other devices. Additionally, the access point supports the following wireless features:• Aggregation support• Reduced InterFrame spacing support• Multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) support• Distributed coordinated function (CSMA/CA, back-off procedure, ACK procedure, retransmission of unacknowledged frames)• RTS/CTS handshake• Beacon generation• Packet fragmentation and reassembly• Auto or long preamble• Roaming among access points on the same subnetAutosensing Ethernet Connections with Auto Uplink The access point can connect to a standard Ethernet network. The LAN interface is autosensing and capable of full-duplex or half-duplex operation. The product family incorporates Auto UplinkTM technology. The Ethernet port automatically senses whether the Ethernet cable plugged in to the port should have a “normal” connection such as to a computer or an “uplink” connection such as to a switch or hub. That port then configures itself correctly. This feature also eliminates any concerns about crossover cables, as Auto Uplink accommodates either type of cable to make the right connection.

Chapter 2. Installation and Configuration | 1422. Installation and ConfigurationThis chapter describes how to set up your ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 for wireless connectivity to your LAN. This basic configuration will enable computers with 802.11b/g/n wireless adapters to connect to the Internet, or access printers and files on your LAN.Note: Indoors, computers can connect over 802.11b/g/n wireless networks at ranges of several hundred feet or more. This distance allows others outside your area to access your network. It is important to take appropriate steps to secure your network from unauthorized access. The access point provides highly effective security features, which are covered in detail in Understanding WNAP320 Wireless Security Options on page 17. Deploy the security features appropriate to your needs.You need to prepare these three things before you can establish a connection through your wireless access point:• A location for the WNAP320 that conforms to the guidelines in the following section, Wireless Equipment Placement and Range Guidelines on page 15.• The wireless access point connected to your LAN through a device such as a hub, switch, router, or cable/DSL gateway. • One or more computers with correctly configured 802.11b/g/n wireless adapters.
Chapter 2. Installation and Configuration | 15ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual Wireless Equipment Placement and Range GuidelinesThe operating distance or range of your wireless connection can vary significantly based on the physical placement of the product family. The latency, data throughput performance, and notebook power consumption of wireless adapters also vary depending on your configuration choices.Note: Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant performance degradation or inability to wirelessly connect to the access point. For complete performance specifications, see Appendix A, Supplemental Information.For best results, place your product family:• Near the center of the area in which your PCs will operate.• In an elevated location such as a high shelf where the wirelessly connected PCs have line-of-sight access (even if through walls).• Away from sources of interference, such as PCs, microwaves, and 2.4 GHz cordless phones.• Away from large metal surfaces.• Putting the antenna in a vertical position provides best side-to-side coverage. Putting the antenna in a horizontal position provides best up-and-down coverage. A wall mount kit is provided with your product family. For installation instructions, see Mounting the ProSafe Wireless Access Point Using the Wall Mount Kit (Optional) on page 26.If using multiple access points, it is better if adjacent access points use different radio frequency channels to reduce interference. The recommended channel spacing between adjacent access points is five channels (for example, use channels 1 and 6, or 6 and 11).The time it takes to establish a wireless connection can vary depending on both your security settings and placement. Some types of security connections can take slightly longer to establish and can consume more battery power on a notebook computer.Cabling RequirementsThe ProSafe Wireless Access Point connects to your LAN via twisted-pair Category 5 Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors.Default Factory SettingsWhen you first receive your WNAP320, the default factory settings will be set. You can restore these defaults with the Factory Default Restore switch on the rear panel .To restore
16 | Chapter 2. Installation and Configuration ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual your default settings, see Appendix A, Supplemental Information for a list of default settings and instructions on the use of the restore switch.
Chapter 2. Installation and Configuration | 17ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual Understanding WNAP320 Wireless Security OptionsAnyone wih a compatible wireless adapter can recieve your wireless data transmissions well beyond your walls. For this reason, use the security features of your wireless equipment. The access point provides highly effective security features, which are covered in detail in this chapter. Deploy the security features appropriate to your needs.Figure 1. There are several ways you can enhance the security of your wireless network:• Restrict access based on MAC address. You can restrict access to only trusted PCs so that unknown PCs cannot wirelessly connect to the access point. MAC address filtering adds an obstacle against unwanted access to your network, but the data broadcast over the wireless link is fully exposed. • Turn off the broadcast of the wireless network name (SSID). If you disable broadcast of the SSID, only devices that have the correct SSID can connect. This nullifies the wireless network “discovery” feature of some products such as Windows XP, but the data is still fully exposed to a determined snoop using specialized test equipment like wireless sniffers.• Use WEP. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption provides data security. WEP open authentication and WEP data encryption will block all but the most determined eavesdropper. • Use WPA or WPA-PSK, WPA2, or WPA2-PSK. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) data encryption provides data security. The very strong authentication along with dynamic per frame rekeying of WPA make it virtually impossible to compromise. Because this is a new standard, wireless device driver and software availability might be limited.Note: WEP and TKIP provide only legacy (slower) rates of operation. AES encryption is recommended in order to use the 11n rates and speed. See Table 1 on page 36.

Chapter 4. Advanced Configuration | 2044. Advanced ConfigurationThis chapter describes how to configure the advanced features of your ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320. The advanced configuration features are located under various sub-menus under Configuration and provide the following functions:• 802.1Q VLAN. Enabling untagged VLAN operation• Hotspot settings. Enabling HTTP redirect• Wireless settings. Configuring advanced wireless LAN parameters.• Access point settings. Enabling wireless bridge and repeater modes.
Chapter 4. Advanced Configuration | 21ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual 802.1Q VLANThe 802.1Q VLAN protocol on the access point logically separates traffic on the same physical network. See Figure , .• Untagged VLAN. When this check box is selected, one VLAN can be configured as an untagged VLAN. When the access point sends frames associated with the untagged VLAN out the LAN (Ethernet) interface, those frames will be untagged. When the access point receives untagged traffic from the LAN (Ethernet) interface, those frames are assigned to the untagged VLAN.If this check box is not selected, the access point tags all outgoing LAN (Ethernet) frames. Only incoming frames tagged with known VLAN IDs will be accepted.Note: The Untagged VLAN check box should not be selected only if the hubs or switches on your LAN support the VLAN (802.1Q) standard. Likewise, the Untagged VLAN value should be changed only if the hubs and switches on your LAN support the VLAN (802.1Q) standard. Changing either of these values will result in a loss of IP connectivity if the hubs and switches on your network have not yet been configured with the corresponding VLANs.• Management VLAN. Management VLANs are used for managing traffic (Telnet, SNMP, and HTTP) to and from the access point.Frames belonging to the management VLAN are not given any 802.1Q header when sent over the trunk. If a port is in a single VLAN, it can be untagged. But if the port needs to be a member of multiple VLANs, it must be tagged.Figure 1.

The default wireless LAN parameters usually work well. However, you can use these settings to fine-tune the overall performance of your product family for your environment.To configure advanced wireless settings:1. Select Configuration > Wireless > Advanced > Wireless Settings. The Wireless Settings screen displays, as shown in Figure 3, .Figure 3. 2. Enter the appropriate information in the following fields:• RTS Threshold (0 - 2347). Request to Send Threshold. The packet size that is used to determine if it should use the CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) mechanism or the CSMA/CA mechanism for packet transmission. With the CSMA/CD transmission mechanism, the transmitting station sends out the actual packet as soon as it has waited for the silence period. With the CSMA/CA transmission mechanism, the transmitting station sends out an RTS packet to the receiving station, and waits for the receiving station to send back a CTS (Clear to Send) packet before sending the actual packet data. The default is 2347.
24 | Chapter 4. Advanced Configuration ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual • Fragmentation Length (256 – 2346). This is the maximum packet size. Packets larger than the size specified in this field will be fragmented. The Fragment length value must be larger than the RTS Threshold value. The default is 2346.• Beacon Interval (100 – 1000). The time interval between 100 ms and 1000 ms for each beacon transmission, which allows the access point to synchronize the wireless network. The default is 100.• Aggregation Length (1024 – 65535). The aggregation length defines the size of aggregated packets. Larger aggregation lengths can sometimes lead to better network performance. The default is 65535.• AMPDU. Aggregated MAC Protocol Data Unit. Aggregates several MAC frames into a single large frame to achieve higher throughput. The default is enabled.• RIFS Transmission. Reduced Interframe Space. RIFS transmissions are shorter than other interframe spaces, and if this feature is enabled the access point will allow transmission of successive frames at different transmit powers. The default is disabled.• DTIM Interval. The Delivery Traffic Indication Message. Specifies the data beacon rate between 1 and 255. The default is 3. • Preamble Type. A long transmit preamble can provide a more reliable connection or a slightly longer range. A short transmit preamble gives better performance. The Auto settings automatically handles both long and short preambles. The default is Auto.3. Click Apply to enable the wireless settings.
Chapter 4. Advanced Configuration | 25ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual Configuring Advanced QoS SettingsWireless Multimedia (WMM) is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the type of data. Time-dependent information, such as video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, Wireless clients must also support WMM. For most networks, the default QoS (Quality of Service) queue parameter settings work well.You can specify parameters on multiple queues for increased throughput and better performance of differentiated wireless traffic, like V oice-over-IP (VoIP), other types of audio, video, and streaming media, as well as traditional IP data.Figure 4, shows the QoS screen.Figure 4.
26 | Chapter 4. Advanced Configuration ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual The QoS options on the WNAP320 are as follows:• AP EDCA parameters. Specify the AP EDCA parameters for different types of data transmitted from the access point to the wireless client.• Station EDCA parameters. Specify the Station EDCA parameters for different types of data transmitted from the wireless client to the access point. If WMM is disabled, you cannot configure Station EDCA parameters.Table 1 describes the settings for QoS queues.Table 1. QoS Queues and Parameters QoS Queue DescriptionData 0 (Voice) High-priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive data such as VoIP and streaming media are automatically sent to this queue.Data 1 (Video) High-priority queue, minimum delay. Time-sensitive video data is automatically sent to this queue.Data 2 (Best Effort) Medium-priority queue, medium throughput and delay. Most traditional IP data is sent to this queue.Data 3 (Background) Lowest-priority queue, high throughput. Bulk data that requires maximum throughput and is not time-sensitive is sent to this queue (FTP data, for example).AIFS (Arbitration Inter-Frame Space)Specifies a wait time (in milliseconds) for data frames. Valid values for AIFS are 1 through 255.cwMin (Minimum Contention Window)Upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial random backoff wait time is determined. Valid values for the cwMin are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, and 1024. The value for cwMin must be lower than the value for cwMax.cwMax (Maximum Contention Window)Upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random backoff value. Valid values for the cwMax are 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, and 1024. The value for cwMax must be higher than the value for cwMin.Max. Burst Length Specifies (in milliseconds) the maximum burst length allowed for packet bursts on the wireless network. A packet burst is a collection of multiple frames transmitted without header information. Valid values for maximum burst length are 0.0 through 999.9.
