The ENH700EXT is a dual-radio wireless outdoor Access Point/Client/Bridge designed as an enterprise-scale product to deliver unparalleled range and performance on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless local-area networks (WLANs). With certified IP-68 protection, the ENH700EXT is designed to deliver high reliability whether installed indoors or outdoors. The ENH700EXT is actually three devices in one: an Access Point, a Client Bridge, and a Client Router. Its wireless capabilities allow you to deliver Internet and intranet connectivity in locations where wired connections are not possible or practical. The ENH700EXT contains two radio-frequency (RF) interfaces, 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, that support IEEE 802.11a/n and 802.11b/g/n standards. Depending on the operating mode, the ENH700EXT can use one or both RF interfaces at the same time. The ENH700EXT also supports Power over Ethernet and is equipped with an external N-type antenna that delivers superior wireless signal quality, even in the harshest environments. Best of all, the antenna is upgradeable. In addition, the ENH700EXT can manage power level control, Wireless Access Control, and Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM), and show real-time received signal strength indicator (RSSI) status. For security-conscious users, the ENH700EXT fully supports encryption, including Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK), 64/128/152-bit Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) Encryption, and IEEE 802.1x RADIUS encryption. 1.1 Features The following list summarizes the key features of the ENH700EXT. - Operates as an Access Point, Client Bridge, or Client Router - Works concurrently with 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks for optimum throughput Fully interoperable with IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b/IEEE 802.11g and IEEE802.11n-compliant devices Supports four independently configurable service set identifiers (SSIDs) Administrators can set up a VLAN for each SSID to isolate services among clients Exceptional extended range and coverage Easy Internet access using ISP service authentication RSSI indicator shows the signal quality for each wireless client connected to the Access Point Fully supports the latest security capabilities Clients can access different networks through a single Access Point, and assign different policies - and functions to each SSID Collocates with any antenna in your environment Web-based Configurator lets administrators configure and manage the ENH700EXT remotely Watertight, weatherproof enclosure prevents interior damage from water and exterior damage from weather corrosion Comes with a wall-mount and mast mounting kit support to simplify installation 1.2 Benefits The ENH700EXT is the ideal product around which you can build your WLAN. The following list summarizes a few key advantages that WLANs have over wired networks: Ideal for hard-to-wire environments There are many scenarios where cables cannot be used to connect networking devices. Historic and older buildings, open areas, and busy streets, for example, make wired LAN installations difficult, expensive or impossible. - Temporary workgroups WLANs make it easy to provide connectivity to temporary workgroups that will later be removed. Examples include parks, athletic arenas, exhibition centers, disaster-recovery shelters, temporary offices, and construction sites. - Ability to access real-time information With a WLAN, workers who rely on access to real-time information, such as doctors and nurses, point-of-sale employees, mobile workers, and warehouse personnel, can access the data they need and increase productivity, without having to look for a place to plug into the network. - Frequently changed environments WLANs are well suited for showrooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where workplaces are rearranged frequently. - Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks WLANs enable network managers in dynamic environments to minimize overhead caused by moves, extensions to networks, and other changes. - Wired LAN backup Network managers can implement WLANs to provide backup for mission-critical applications running on wired networks. - Mobility within training/educational facilities Training sites at corporations and students at universities are a few examples where wireless connectivity can be used to facilitate access to information, information exchanges, and learning. 1.3 Package Contents Open the package carefully and make sure it contains all of the items listed below. - One EnGenius Concurrent Dual Radio AP (ENH700EXT) - One PoE injector 48V/0.8A Power Adapter - One mounting kit One grounding cable One quick-installation guide One CD containing the user manual Two N-Type Dual Band Omni directional Antenna If any item is missing or damaged, contact your place of purchase immediately.

Use this feature if you have a RADIUS server. WPA(TKIP), WPA2(AES), and WPA2 Mixed encryption types are also supported. The following figure shows an example of a RADIUS configuration, where two ENH700EXT devices installed at different locations communicate with each other wirelessly. In this configuration, one ENH700EXT is configured for Access Point Mode and connected to a RADIUS server via a switch, while the other ENH700EXT is configured for Client Bridge Mode. The RADIUS server uses an authentication scheme such as PAP or CHAP to verify a user's identification, along with, optionally, other information related to the request, such as the user's network address or phone number, account status and specific network service access privileges. The RADIUS server then returns one of three responses to the ENH700EXT : Access Reject (user is denied access to all requested network resources), Access Challenge (requests additional information from the user such as a secondary password), PIN, token or card), or Access Accept (user is granted access). The sections that follow the figure below describe how to configure your ENH700EXT for use in a RADIUS environment. ESSID Selection The ENH700EXT supports four SSIDs. Each SSID can be configured to use a different type of authentication. Hidden SSID Select Enable or Disable to broadcast or not broadcast the ENH700EXT’s SSID. Users cannot reconnect automatically or manually to a WLAN that uses a hidden SSID. A WLAN that uses a hidden SSID does not appear in the Microsoft Windows Wireless Network Connection window.

Apply / Cancel Click Apply to apply the changes or Cancel to discard your changes and return to the previous settings. 5.6 Wireless Advanced Settings If you do not have experience with configuring advanced wireless settings, leave these options at their default settings. Otherwise, any changes you make can affect performance adversely. 5.6.1 Advanced Settings (Access Point) Fragment Threshold Specify the maximum packet size during transmission. If a large number of clients are accessing the WLAN, specify a small value to avoid collisions. RTS Threshold RTS threshold is a trigger to engage the exchange of RTS and CTS messages between the Access Point and client. The trigger is a type of “handshaking” approach that provides an additional layer of control over the use of the shared medium by indicating the amount of time a wireless device, attempting to send, will wait for a recipient to acknowledge that it is ready. If the packet size is smaller than the RTS threshold, the wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send the packet. To ensure communication, use the maximum value. Decreasing this value causes the sending device to discard the current packet and move on to the next. Beacon Interval Specify the duration between beacon packets. Access Points broadcast Beacons or Traffic Indication Messages (TIM) to synchronize WLANs. The default setting of 100 should be fine for most situations. In a "noisy" environment with much interference, decreasing this value can improve network performance. In very remote locations (with few wireless nodes), you can increase this value. DTIM Period Specify a value between 1 and 255 for the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM is a countdown that informs clients about the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1. Note: The DTIM is a multiple of the Beacon (TIM), so if the DTIM is set to 3, a DTIM message is sent with every third Beacon. Preamble Type Tells the receiver that data is on the way. The preamble allows the receiver to acquire the wireless signal and synchronize itself with the transmitter. Select Long Preamble or Short Preamble. Long Preamble can provide better wireless LAN compatibility with legacy devices, while Short Preamble can provide better WLAN performance. Tx Power Auto Transmitted Power Distance Specify the distance between Access Points and clients. Longer distances may drop high-speed connections. Layer 2 Isolation Enable or disable Layer 2 Isolation. Layer 2 isolation prevents communication and data sharing between wireless stations associated with different Access Points. 5.6.2 Advanced Settings (Client Bridge / Client Router) Fragment Threshold Specify the maximum packet size during transmission. If a large number of clients are accessing the WLAN, specify a small value to avoid collisions. RTS Threshold RTS threshold is a trigger to engage the exchange of RTS and CTS messages between the Access Point and client. The trigger is a type of “handshaking” approach that provides an additional layer of control over the use of the shared medium by indicating the amount of time a wireless device, attempting to send, will wait for a recipient to acknowledge that it is ready. If the packet size is smaller than the RTS threshold, the wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send the packet. To ensure communication, use the maximum value. Decreasing this value causes the sending device to discard the current packet and move on to the next. Preamble Type Tells the receiver that data is on the way. The preamble allows the receiver to acquire the wireless signal and synchronize itself with the transmitter. Select Long Preamble or Short Preamble. Long Preamble can provide better wireless LAN compatibility with legacy devices, while Short Preamble can provide better WLAN performance. 802.11g Protection If you enable protection mode, every transmitted packet must wait until CTS is received before it can be sent. Protection mode can prevent collision, but slows wireless transmission speeds. Tx Power Auto Transmitted Power Distance Specify the distance between Access Points and clients. Longer distances may drop high-speed connections. 5.7 Wireless Access Control List Use the Wireless Access Control List provide or deny network access to wireless clients according to their MAC addresses.

Appendix A – Glossary Access Point A base station in a WLAN that act as a central transmitter and receiver of WLAN radio signals. Ad Hoc Network Ad hoc network refers to a short-term WLAN framework created between two or more WLAN adapters, without going through an Access Point. An ad hoc network allows computers to "talk" (send data) directly to and from one another. For an ad hoc network to work, each computer on the network needs a WLAN card installed configured for Ad Hoc mode. Antenna A device that transmits and receives radio-frequency (RF) signals. Often camouflaged on existing buildings, trees, water towers or other tall structures, the size and shape of antennas are generally determined by the frequency of the signal they manage. Authentication A process that verifies the identity of a wireless device or end-user. One of the most common forms of authentication is to verify identities by checking a user name and password to allow network access. Backbone A high-speed line or series of connections forming a major pathway within a network. Bandwidth The portion of the frequency spectrum required to transmit desired information. Each radio channel has a center frequency and additional frequencies above and below this carrier frequency which is used to carry the transmitted information. The range of frequencies from the lowest to the highest used is called the bandwidth. Bridge A wireless device that connects multiple networks that are physically separate or use different media, but which use similar standards. Bridge Mode An Access Pointy in bridge mode can operate as a WLAN bridge that connects two wired network segments. The peer device also must be in bridge mode. This wireless bridge connection is equivalent to a Wireless Distribution System (WDS). CHAP Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol is an alternative protocol that avoids sending passwords over the wire by using a challenge/response technique. Collision Interference that occurs when two network devices transmit data at the same time. The network detects the collision of the two transmitted packets and discards both of them. Coverage The region within which a paging receiver can receive reliably the transmission of the paging signals. Coverage Area The geographical reach of a mobile communications network or system. Coverage Hole An area within the radio coverage footprint of a wireless system in which the RF signal level is below the design threshold. Coverage holes are usually caused by physical obstructions such as buildings, foliage, hills, tunnels, and indoor parking garages. Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) A common technique for detecting data transmission errors. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) A protocol that automatically assigns temporary IP addresses to client stations logging onto an IP network, so users do not have to configure the IP addresses manually. The ENH700EXT contains an internal DHCP server that automatically allocates IP address using a user-defined address range. Dead Spot An area within the coverage area of a WLAN in which there is no coverage or transmission falling off. Dead spots are often caused by electronic interference or physical barriers such as hills, tunnels, and indoor parking garages. See also coverage area. 802.11 A category of WLAN standards defined by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). 802.11a An IEEE standard for WLANs that operate at 5 GHz, with rates up to 54 Mbps. 802.11b An IEEE standard for WLANs that operate at 2.4 GHz, with rates up to 11 Mbps. 802.11g An IEEE standard for WLANs that operates at 2.4 GHz with rates up to 54 Mbps. Encryption The translation of data into a secret code. Encryption is the most effective way to achieve data security. To read an encrypted file, you must have access to a secret key or password that enables you to decrypt it. Unencrypted data is called plain text ; encrypted data is referred to as cipher text ESS ID An ESSID is the unique identifier for an ESS. All Access Points and their associated wireless stations in the same group must have the same ESSID. Footprint Geographical areas in which an entity is licensed to broadcast its signal. Gateway A computer system or other device that acts as a translator between two systems that do not use the same communication protocols, data formatting structures, languages and/or architecture. Keys Keys are used like passwords to open and close (encrypt and decrypt) messages. While many encryption algorithms are commonly known and public, the key must be kept secret. Local-Area Network (LAN) A small data network covering a limited area, such as a building or group of buildings. Most LANs connect workstations or personal computers. This allows many users to share devices, such as printers, as well as data. The LAN also allows easy communication, by facilitating e-mail or supporting chat sessions. Media Access Control (MAC) Address The address associated with every hardware device on the network. Every 802.11 wireless device has its own specific MAC address hard-coded into it. This unique identifier can be used to provide security for WLANs. When a network uses a MAC table, only the 802.11 radios that have had their MAC addresses added to that network's MAC table are able to get onto the network. Network Address Translation (NAT) An Internet standard that enables a LAN to use one set of IP addresses for internal traffic and a second set of addresses for external traffic. Network Time Protocol (NTP) A protocol that allows devices to synchronize their time with a time server. It uses TCP or UDP port 123 by default Passphrase A text string used to automatically generate WEP keys on wireless client adapters. Power Over Ethernet (PoE) The ability to provide power to a PoE-enabled device via an 8-pin CAT 5 Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for a nearby power source. Preamble Used to synchronize transmissions in a WLAN. The preamble type defines the length of the Cyclic Redundancy Check block for communication between the device and roaming wireless stations. Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol (PEAP) An authentication protocol of IEEE 802.1x used to transmit authentication data, including passwords, over 802.11 WLANs. Quality of Service (QoS) Refers to a network’s ability to deliver data with minimum delay, and to the networking methods used to provide bandwidth for real-time multimedia applications. Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) A networking protocol that provides centralized authentication, authorization, and accounting management for computers to connect and use a network service. Because of the broad support and the ubiquitous nature of the RADIUS protocol, it is often used by ISPs and enterprises to manage access to the Internet or internal networks, WLANs, and integrated e-mail services. Service Set Identifier (SSID) The name of a WLAN. All wireless devices on a WLAN must use the same SSID in order to communicate with each other. Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) SNMP is an Internet-standard protocol for managing devices on IP networks. Snooping Passively watching a network for data that can be used to benefit a hacker, such as passwords. Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) An encryption protocol that uses 128-bit keys that are dynamically generated and distributed by the authentication server. TKIP regularly changes and rotates the encryption keys so that the same encryption key is never used twice. Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) A protocol permitting communications over and between networks. The TCP/IP protocol is the basis for Internet communications. Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ) WFQ services queues based on their priority and queue weight. Queues with larger weights get more service than queues with smaller weights. This queuing mechanism is highly efficient in that it divides any available bandwidth across the different traffic queues. See also Queuing Algorithms. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) A security protocol that provides a WLAN with a level of security and privacy comparable to what is usually expected of a wired LAN. WEP encrypts data transmitted between wired and WLANs to keep the transmission private. Wireless Local-Area Network (WLAN) WLANs use RF technology to transmit and receive data wirelessly in a certain area. This allows users in a small zone to transmit data and share resources, such as printers, without physically connecting each computer with cables. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA ) A subset of the IEEE 802.11i standard. WPA applies IEEE 802.1x and Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) to authenticate wireless clients using an external RADIUS database. WPA encrypts data by using Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), Message Integrity Check (MIC) and IEEE 802.1x. See also WPA-PSK (WPA -Pre-Shared Key). Wi-Fi MultiMedia (WMM) Part of the IEEE 802.11e QoS enhancement to the Wi-Fi standard that ensures quality of service for multimedia applications in WLANs. Wireless Client Supplicants A wireless client supplicant is the software that runs on an operating system instructing the wireless client how to use WPA. WPA -Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK) WPA-PSK requires a single (identical) password entered into each access point, wireless gateway and wireless client.
