System Requirements The following are the minimum system requirements in order configure the device. PC/AT compatible computer with a Ethernet interface. Operating system that supports HTTP web-browser Applications The wireless LAN products are easy to install and highly efficient. The following list describes some of the many applications made possible through the power and flexibility of wireless LANs: a) Difficult-to-wire environments There are many situations where wires cannot be laid easily. Historic buildings, older buildings, open areas and across busy streets make the installation of LANs either impossible or very expensive. b) Temporary workgroups Consider situations in parks, athletic arenas, exhibition centers, disasterrecovery, temporary offices and construction sites where one wants a temporary WLAN established and removed. c) The ability to access real-time information Doctors/nurses, point-of-sale employees, and warehouse workers can access real-time information while dealing with patients, serving customers and processing information. d) Frequently changed environments Show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where frequently rearrange the workplace. e) Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) networks SOHO users need a cost-effective, easy and quick installation of a small network. f) Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead caused by moves, extensions to networks, and other changes with wireless LANs. g) Wired LAN backup Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for missioncritical applications running on wired networks. h) Training/Educational facilities Training sites at corporations and students at universities use wireless connectivity to ease access to information, information exchanges, and learning. Network Configuration To better understand how the wireless LAN products work together to create a wireless network, it might be helpful to depict a few of the possible wireless LAN PC card network configurations. The wireless LAN products can be configured as: a) Ad-hoc (or peer-to-peer) for departmental or SOHO LANs. b) Infrastructure for enterprise LANs. a) Ad-hoc (peer-to-peer) Mode This is the simplest network configuration with several computers equipped with the PC Cards that form a wireless network whenever they are within range of one another. In ad-hoc mode, each client is peer-topeer, would only have access to the resources of the other client and does not require an access point. This is the easiest and least expensive way for the SOHO to set up a wireless network. The image below depicts a network in ad-hoc mode. b) Infrastructure Mode The infrastructure mode requires the use of an access point (AP). In this mode, all wireless communication between two computers has to be via the AP. It doesn’t matter if the AP is stand-alone or wired to an Ethernet network. If used in stand-alone, the AP can extend the range of independent wireless LANs by acting as a repeater, which effectively doubles the distance between wireless stations. The image below depicts a network in infrastructure mode. 2 Understanding the Hardware Hardware Installation 1. Place the unit in an appropriate location after conducting a site survey. 2. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the LAN port of the device and another end into your PC/Notebook. 3.

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. It is recommended to select Auto if you are not sure which authentication type is used. Fragment Threshold: Packets over the specified size will be fragmented in order to improve performance on noisy networks. Specify a value between 256 and 65535. The default value is 2346. RTS Threshold: Packets over the specified size will use the RTS/CTS mechanism to maintain performance in noisy networks and preventing hidden nodes from degrading the performance. Specify a value between 1 and 2347. The default value is 2347. 29 Beacon Interval: Beacons are packets sent by a wireless Access Point to synchronize wireless devices. Specify a Beacon Period value between 20 and 1024. The default value is set to 100 milliseconds. Data Rate: Select a transmission rate from the drop-down list. It is recommended to use the auto option. Preamble Type: Select a long or short preamble type. For best performance, it is recommended that the preamble type of the AP matches that of the client. Broadcast SSID: Select Enable or Disable. This is the SSID broadcast feature. If you set this value to Visible, then the clients will be able to find this SSID on a site survey. IAPP: This is the Inter Access Point Protocol which simplifies roaming between Access Points. If you have setup several Access Point or a WDS system, it is recommended to Enable this feature. 802.11g protection: If your network includes 11g and 11b clients, it’s recommended to enable the feature as this will enhance the throughput rate in a mixed mode. User Isolation: Select Enable or Disable. This is a security feature that will isolate every client device that is associated with the device. One client device will not be able to view the other client device in a network neighborhood. If used in a public area such as a coffee shop, it is recommended to enable this feature in order to protect the privacy of the client devices. RF Output Power: You may control the output power of the device by selecting a value. This feature can be helpful in restricting the coverage area of the wireless network. Turbo Mode: This is a special feature that improves the speed and performance of the network. It is recommend to enable the feature. QoS WMM: If you are using VoIP, it is recommended to enable WMM. Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a Wi-Fi Alliance interpretability certification, based on the IEEE 802.11e draft standard. It provides basic Quality of service (QoS) features to IEEE 802.11 networks. WMM prioritizes traffic according to 4 AC (Access Categories), however it does not provide guaranteed throughput. It is suitable for simple applications that require QoS, such as Wi-Fi Voice over IP (VoIP) phone Click on the Apply Changesto save the changes. 30 Wireless Security To protect your privacy this mode supports several types of wireless security: WEP WPA, WPA2, and WPA-Mixed. WEP is the original wireless encryption standard. WPA provides a higher level of security. The following section describes the security configuration in detail. Wireless Security - Disabled Encryption: Select None from the drop-down list in order to disable wireless security. Click on the Apply Changesto save the changes. Wireless Security - WEP Select WEP from the drop-down list if your wireless network uses WEP encryption. WEP is an acronym for Wired Equivalent Privacy, and is a security protocol that provides the same level of security for wireless networks as for a wired network. WEP is not as secure as WPA encryption. To gain access to a WEP network, you must know the key. The key is a string of characters that you create. When using WEP, you must determine the level of encryption. The type of encryption determines the key length. 128-bit encryption requires a longer key than 64-bit encryption. Keys are defined by entering in a string in HEX (hexadecimal - using characters 0-9, A-F) or ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange - alphanumeric characters) format. ASCII format is provided so you can enter a string that is easier to remember. The ASCII string is converted to HEX for use over the network. Four keys can be defined so that you can change keys easily. A default key is selected for use on the network. 31 Encryption: Select WEP from the drop-down list in order to enable WEP security and then click on the Set WEP key button. Key Length: Select a 64-bit or 128-bit WEP key length from the drop-down list. Key Format: Select a key format such as HEX or ASCII from the drop-down list. Encryption Key: You may use up to four different keys for four different networks. Select the current key that will be used. Click on the Apply Changes to save the changes. 32 Wireless Security – WPA / WPA2-Mixed Select WPA or WPA2-Mixed from the drop-down list if your wireless network uses WPA encryption. WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) was designed to improve upon the security features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). The technology is designed to work with existing Wi-Fi products that have been enabled with WEP. WPA provides improved data encryption through the Temporal Integrity Protocol (TKIP), which scrambles the keys using a hashing algorithm and by adding an integrity checking feature which makes sure that keys haven’t been tampered with. Encryption: Select WPA or WPA2-Mixed from the drop-down list in order to enable WPA security. WPA Authentication Mode: Select Enterprise (Radius) or Personal (Pre-Shared Key). If you select Enterprise (radius) then the pass key is located on the RADIUS server, however, if you select Personal (Pre-Shared Key) then you may assign a key on this configuration page. WPA / WPA2 Cipher Suite: Select TKIP or AES as the cipher suite. The encryption algorithm used to secure the data communication. TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) provides per-packet key generation and is based on WEP. AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a very secure block based encryption. Note that, if the bridge uses the AES option, the bridge can associate with the access point only if the access point is also set to use only AES. The device negotiates the cipher type with the access point, and uses AES when available. Pre-Shared Key: The key is entered as a pass-phrase of up to 63 alphanumeric characters in ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) format at both ends of the wireless connection. It cannot be shorter than eight characters, although for proper security it needs to be of ample length and should not be a commonly known phrase. This phrase is used to generate session keys that are unique for each wireless client. Authentication Radius Sever: If you have selected Enterprise (Radius) as the authentication type then you must specify the RADIUS port number, IP address, and password. 33 Click on the Apply Changes to save the changes. Wireless Access Control Click on the Access Control link on the navigation drop-down menu. The MAC address filter section can be used to filter network access by machines based on the unique MAC addresses of their network adapter(s). It is most useful to prevent unauthorized wireless devices from connecting to your network. A MAC address is a unique ID assigned by the manufacturer of the network adapter. Wireless Access Control Mode: You may use this feature to filter the wireless clients. Select a filter setting from the drop-down list. When allow listed is selected; only computers with MAC addresses listed in the MAC Address List are granted network access. When deny listed is selected, any computer with a MAC address listed in the MAC Address List is refused access to the network. MAC Address: Specify the MAC address of the node which you would like to filter. Click on the Apply Changes to save the changes. 34 WDS (Wireless Distribution System) Click on the WDS link on the navigation drop-down menu. The Wireless Distribution System feature configures this device as a repeater and therefore extends the range/coverage area of the wireless network. Enable WDS: When WDS is enabled, this access point functions as a wireless repeater and is able to wirelessly communicate with other APs via WDS links. A WDS link is bidirectional; so this AP must know the MAC Address (creates the WDS link) of the other AP, and the other AP must have a WDS link back to this AP. Make sure the APs are configured with same channel number. Add WDS AP: Specify one-half of the WDS link. The other AP must also have the MAC address of this AP to create the WDS link back to this AP. Click on the Apply Changes to save the changes. 35 WDS Security Click on the Set Security button to configure one of the security options for the WDS. Options available are WEP, WPA and WPA2, and you must configure the same security setting on each Access Point linked with this one. WDS Security - None Encryption: Select None from the drop-down list in order to disable wireless security. Click on the Apply Changes to save the changes. WDS Security – WEP 64/128 Select WEP from the drop-down list if your wireless network uses WEP encryption. WEP is an acronym for Wired Equivalent Privacy, and is a security protocol that provides the same level of security for wireless networks as for a wired network. WEP is not as secure as WPA encryption. To gain access to a WEP network, you must know the key. The key is a string of characters that you create. When using WEP, you must determine the level of encryption. The type of encryption determines the key length. 128-bit encryption requires a longer key than 64-bit encryption.
