1 Introduction and Scope
Pepwave’s AP Series of enterprise-grade 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi access points is engineered to
provide fast, dependable, and flexible operation in a variety of environments, all controlled by an
easy-to-use centralized management system. From the small but powerful AP One mini to the
top-of-the-line AP Pro X, the Pepwave AP Series offers wireless networking solutions to suit any
business need, and every Pepwave access point is loaded with essential features such as
multiple SSIDs, VLAN, WDS, and Guest Protect.
A single Pepwave access point can masquerade as up to four virtual access points, each with
its own security policy (WPA, WPA2, etc.) and authentication mechanism (802.1x, open, captive
portal, etc.), allowing faster, easier, and more cost-effective network builds. Each member of the
Pepwave AP Series family also features a high-powered Wi-Fi transmitter that greatly enhances
coverage and performance while reducing equipment costs and maintenance.

7.3.1.1 Static WEP Parameters
The configuration of Static WEP parameters enables pre-shared WEP key encryption. Please
note that static WEP offers weak security and does not support authentication.
Static WEP Parameters
Key Size
Choose 40 bits (64-bit WEP) or 104 bits (128-bit WEP). When using the
WDS setting, 128 bits will also be available.
Key Format
Choose ASCII or HEX.ASCII can be applied only to encryption keys that
are manually entered. HEX can be applied to encryption keys that are
manually entered or automatically generated.
Passphrase
Combination of words and characters used to generate an encryption
key. Click Generate Key to create the key.
Encryption Key
User-specified encryption key value. For ASCII format, key length is
either 5 or 13. For HEX format, key length is either 10 or 26.
Shared Key
Authentication
Check to enable shared key authentication. Default is disabled, meaning
open authentication is used.

7.3.1.2 802.1X Parameters
The configuration of 802.1X parameters enables RADIUS-based 802.1X authentication with a
dynamic WEP key.
802.1x Parameters
802.1X Version
Choose v1 or v2 of the 802.1x EAPOL. When v1 is selected, both v1 and
v2 clients can associate with the access point. When v2 is selected, only
v2 clients can associate with the access point. Most modern wireless
clients support v2. For stations that do not support v2, select v1. Default
is v2.
WEP Key Size
Choose 40 bits or 104 bits.
Re-keying Period
Length of time throughout which the broadcast key remains valid. When
the re-keying period expires, the broadcast key is no longer valid, and
broadcast key renewal is required. Default is 14400 seconds (four hours).
0 disables re-keying.

7.3.1.3 WPA parameters
The configuration of WPA parameters enables WPA-TKIP, WPA2-AES:CCMP, and WPA-TKIP
and WPA2-AES:CCMP. To enable WPA and WPA-PSK, configure WPA-TKIP. To enable
WPA2 and WPA2-PSK, configure WPA2-AES. When WPA or WPA2 is configured, RADIUSbased 802.1x authentication with TKIP encryption method is enabled. When using this
configuration, Pre-Shared Key should be disabled.
The security level of this method is known to be very high.
When WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK is configured, a Pre-Shared Key or Passphrase is used for
data encryption and authentication. When using this configuration, Pre-Shared Key should be
enabled. Key length must be from 8 to 63 characters.
The security level of this method is known to be high.
