Profile Tab
Profile Name
Here shows a distinctive name of profile in this column.
SSID
The SSID is the unique name shared among all wireless access points in
the wireless network.
Add
Click Add button to add a profile from the drop-down screen.
Profile Name: Users can enter profile name at will.
Network Name (SSID): The SSID is the unique network name
(case-sensitive) shared among all wireless access points in the wireless
network. The name must be identical for all devices and wireless access
points attempting to connect to the same network.
This is a computer-to-computer (ad hoc) network; wireless access
points are not used: This function is selected to enable the ad hoc
network type that computers should be setup at the same channel to
communicate to each other directly without access point, users can share
files and printers between each PC and laptop. User can select channels
form the pull-down menu.
Wireless network security
Network Authentication: There are several types of authentication
modes including Open System, Shared Key, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK,
WPA 802.1X, WPA2 802.1X, WEP 802.1X.
Data encryption: For Open System, Shared Key and WEP 802.1X
authentication mode, the selection of encryption type is WEP. For
WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, WPA 802.1X and WPA2 802.1X authentication
mode, the encryption type supports both TKIP and AES.
When encryption is set to WEP…
ASCII: Only valid when using WEP encryption algorithm. When key
length is set to 64 bits user can enter 5 ASCII characters (case sensitive),
and 128 bits for 13 ASCII characters (case sensitive).
PASS PHRASE: Only valid when using WEP encryption algorithm.
When key length is set to 64 bits user can enter 10 Hexadecimal characters
(0~9, a~f) and 128 bits for 26 Hexadecimal characters (0~9, a~f).
Key index (advanced): Select 1~4 key index form the pull-down menu,
must match with the connected AP’s key index.
When encryption is set to WPA-PSK/ WPA2-PSK…
Network key: Enter network key at least 8 to 64 characters.
Confirm network key: Enter network key again to confirm.
When encryption is set to WPA 802.1X/ WPA2 802.1X/ WEP
802.1X…
When users use radius server to authenticate client certificate for WPA
authentication mode (WPA authentication do not support EAP MethodMD5-Challenge).
EAP TYPE:
 TLS: Transport Layer Security. Provides for certificate-based and
-5-
mutual authentication of the client and the network. It relies on
client-side and server-side certificates to perform authentication and
can be used to dynamically generate user-based and session-based
WEP keys to secure subsequent communications between the WLAN
client and the access point.
 LEAP: Light Extensible Authentication Protocol. It is an EAP
authentication type used primarily in Cisco Aironet WLANs. It
encrypts data transmissions using dynamically generated WEP keys,
and supports mutual authentication.
 TTLS: Tunnelled Transport Layer Security. This security method
provides for certificate-based, mutual authentication of the client and
network through an encrypted channel. Unlike EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS
requires only server-side certificates.
 PEAP: Protect Extensible Authentication Protocol. PEAP transport
securely authentication data by using tunnelling between PEAP clients
and an authentication server. PEAP can authenticate wireless LAN
clients using only server-side certificates, thus simplifying the
implementation and administration of a secure wireless LAN.
 MD5:
Message Digest Challenge. Challenge is an EAP
authentication type that provides base-level EAP support. It
provides for only one-way authentication - there is no mutual
authentication of wireless client and the network.
Tunnel: This is enabled under TTLS and PEAP type. For TTLS, the
selections of tunnel are CHAP, MSCHAP, MSCHAP-V2, PAP. For PEAP,
the selections of tunnel are MD5, GTC, TLS and MSCHAP-V2.
Username: Enter the username for server.
Identity: Enter the identity for server.
Domain: Enter the domain of the network.
Password: Enter the password for server.
Certificate: Choose server that issuer of certificates.
