4.4 Wireless Setting
There are three filtering type: Include, Exclude, and Disable
17
4.4.1 General
In this window you can make changes to the default wireless settings. For communicating, all
computers on the network must be within the same IP Address range, and have the same settings for
the Radio channel and SSID. If you don’t want to utilize WEP Encryption, select “Disable” to
disable this function.
(1) SSID: The SSID is a unique name shared among all points in your wireless network. The
SSID must be identical for all points in the network. It is case sensitive and must not
exceed 32 characters.
(2) Channel: The channel shared by all wireless devices. The range of channel is 1~14.
(3) WEP: Short for Wired Equivalent Privacy, a security protocol for wireless local area
networks (WLANs) defined in the 802.11b standard. WEP is designed to provide the same
level of security as that of a wired LAN. Select Disabled to disable this function.
There are two WEP Encryption key length: 64-bit(10 hex digits) and 128 bit(26
Select “Disable” to disable WEP Encryption
18
hex digits). For Authentication type, you can choose between Open System1, Shared Key2 ,
and Auto3. All station on your network must use the same authentication type. Check your
wireless card’s documentation to see what type to use.
1 Open System - An open system allows any client to authenticate as long as it conforms to any MAC address filter
policies that may have been set. All authentication packets are transmitted without encryption.
2 Shared Key - when both the sender and the receiver share a secret key. When "Shared Key" is checked, the AP sends
an unencrypted challenge text string to any device attempting to communicate with the AP. The device requesting
authentication encrypts the challenge text and sends it back to the access point. If the challenge text is encrypted
correctly, the access point allows the requesting device to authenticate.
3 Auto – No matter the authentication packets with encryption or not, the access point allows the requesting device to
authenticate.

RTS Threshold 0 – 3000 (ms) 2432
Beacon Period Up to 4095 ms 4095
(4) Load Balance: This is the maximum number of users that can associate to this AP. The new
client’s association will not be accepted when the number of associated clients reaches this
number.
(5) AP Link Completeness: If this function is enabled, the AP will disassociated all associated
20
clients and ban all new association requested when the LAN Ethernet port gets no signals (e.g. it
is unplugged)..
4.4.3 Associated Clients
This page lists all the associated clients. Click Refresh to obtain the most up-to-date
information.
4.5 SNMP
Short for Simple Network Management Protocol, a set of protocols for managing complex
networks. SNMP works by sending messages, called protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts
of a network. SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data about themselves in Management
Information Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP requesters.
4.5.1 SNMP Community
SNMP Community provides a simple kind of password protection. Access to the SNMP
device is controlled through community names. The community name can be thought of as a
password. If you don't have the correct community name you can't retrieve any data (get) or make
any changes (sets). Multiple SNMP managers may be organized in a specified community. You can
change your SNMP community settings on this screen. Check the “Enable” check box to enable the
SNMP function. Click APPLY to complete your change.
21
Validity: You can enable or disable the SNMP function of the corresponding community item.
Access Right: Select a access right for the corresponding SNMP community
(Deny4/Read5/Write6).
Community: Specify the name of community for the SNMP manager( Private/Public). By
convention, “Public” community is with a read-only access right.
4.5.2 SNMP Trap
Traps can be used by network entities to signal abnormal conditions to management stations.
SNMP TRAP message can be sent to a host. Click APPLY to complete your settings.
Version: Select the SNMP Version.
Select “Disable” to disable the snmp trap function of the corresponding item.
Version1: SNMP Version1
Version2: SNMP Version2
IP Address: Specify the IP Address of the SNMP Manager for SNMP Trap Report.
Community: Specify the type of community ( public/Private) for SNMP manager.
Following are the traps supported in the access point:
Cold-start trap:
This trap indicates that the specified node's power has just come on. The cold-start trap is
generated every time the access point is power-cycled. Cold-start traps are not generated
until three seconds after the access point is power-cycled. This allows time for the hardware
4 Deny community will not allow a remote device to read information from a device or to modify settings on that
device.
5 Read-only community enables a remote device to retrieve "read-only" information from a device.
6 Read-Write community allows a remote device to read information from a device and to modify settings on that
device.
