1. Setting Up Wireless Network10 GN-1050 Operator’s Manual — Before Setting Up Wireless NetworkBefore Setting Up Wireless NetworkThank you for purchasing the GN-1050 Wireless LAN Module.This product is a wireless LAN Module using the 2.4 GHz spectrum diffusion system, and is compatible with IEEE Standard 802.11g and 802.11b for wireless LAN.When the Wireless LAN is enabled, users can perform the following printing through the Wireless LAN:• Raw TCP Printing from Windows computers• LPR Printing from Windows computers• LPR Printing from Macintosh computers• LPR Printing from Unix workstationSUPPLEMENT: The instructions on how set up the client computers for WiFi printing is same as the instructions for wired network printing. For instructions on how to set up the client com-puters, please see Printing Guide.NOTES: • To access the equipment through the Wireless LAN from the client computers, the client computers must have the Wireless LAN Module.• When you enable the wireless network, the existing NIC will be disabled. This equipment cannot connect the wired network and wireless network at the same time.Planning for InstallationBefore setting up the Wireless LAN Module for your wireless LAN network, read through this section to understand the information that you require to set up the equip-ment in your wireless LAN network.1. Determine the Network TypeThis Wireless LAN Module supports Infrastructure mode and Ad Hoc mode.Infrastructure ModeIn the Infrastructure Mode, client computers can access to the equipment through a wireless network via an Access Point. The Infrastructure Mode is suitable for the wire-less network that many client computers are connected at the same time.The Access Point will be required to establish the wireless network in the Infrastructure Mode.Access Point
1. Setting Up Wireless NetworkGN-1050 Operator’s Manual — Before Setting Up Wireless Network 11Ad Hoc ModeIn the Ad Hoc Mode, client computers can access to the equipment directory through a wireless network without an Access Point. The Ad Hoc Mode is not suitable for the wireless network that many computers are connected, however, it is easy to establish the wireless network because the Access Point is not required.2. Determine the SSIDIn the wireless network, the same SSID (Service Set ID) must be assigned in each wire-less device. Only wireless devices that have the same SSID assigned to them can communicate with each other through the wireless network.In the Infrastructure Mode, the SSID is usually set in the Access Point. Therefore, you must set the same SSID in this equipment to communicate through the wireless net-work via the Access Point.In the Ad Hoc Mode, you must assign the same SSID that is assigned to other client computers. To access the devices each other in the Ad Hoc Mode, the same SSID must be assigned to each device.3. Determine the Security ModeThis equipment supports the following wireless security modes.WPA/WPA2/802.1xUsing the WPA/WPA2/802.1x authentication, you can restrict the access to the wireless network using the RADIUS server. The WPA/WPA2/802.1x authentication is available only when the wireless network is established in the Infrastructure Mode.There are two protocols for the WPA/WPA2/802.1x authentication, EAP-TLS or PEAP.When using the EAP-TLS authentication, you must install user certification file (must be either DER, BASE64, or PKCS#7 encoding format) and CA certification file (must be exported as a private key in PKCS#7 encoding format) in the equipment. This equip-ment uses the user certification file to authenticate the access rights to the wireless net-work, and the RADIUS server authenticate this equipment using the user ID and password.
1. Setting Up Wireless Network12 GN-1050 Operator’s Manual — Before Setting Up Wireless NetworkWhen using the PEAP, you must install the CA certification file (must be either DER, BASE64, or PKCS#7 encoding format) in the equipment. This equipment uses the user name and password to authenticate the access rights to the wireless network, and the RADIUS server authenticate this equipment using the CA certification file.NOTE: This equipment supports following RADIUS server.- For EAP-TLS: Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2003 Server, Funk Odyssey Server- For PEAP: Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2003 ServerWPAPSK/WPA2PSKThe WPAPSK/WPA2PSK is an authentication method using the PSK (Pre-Shared Key) between the Access Point and other wireless devices. The WPAPSK/WPA2PSK authentication is available only when the wireless network is established in the Infra-structure Mode.To access the wireless network using the WPAPSK/WPA2PSK authentication, the same PSK Path Phrase must be assigned in both the Access Point and other wireless devices. If the PSKs are same between the Access Point and other wireless devices, the Access Point allows them to access the wireless network through the Access Point.The WPAPSK/WPA2PSK has stronger security than WEP because the data encryption is improved over WEP. This equipment supports TKIP and AES(CCMP) encryption for the WPAPSK/WPA2PSK authentication.The TKIP provides a different key for per packet with a message integrity check. This key will be changed for every fixed interval.The AES is the next-generation cryptography algorithm that the U.S. government improves to replace the DES and 3DES.This authentication method is suitable for a small wireless network and easy to add the security because the authentication server is not required unlike the WPA/WPA2/802.1x authentication.NOTE: When using WPAPSK/WPA2PSK, it is recommended to use a secure password for WPAPSK/WPA2PSK.WEPThe WEP is a data encryption method using the WEP key between the Access Point and other wireless devices. Compared with WPA/WPA2/802.1x and WPAPSK/WPA2PSK, the WEP is less security. If the wireless network is configured in the Infra-structure Mode and the Access Point supports WPA/WPA2/802.1x or WPAPSK/WPA2PSK, it is recommended to use WPA/WPA2/802.1x or WPAPSK/WPA2PSK rather than WEP.The WEP authentication is available for both the Infrastructure Mode and Ad Hoc Mode.EAP-TLS PEAPAccessPointRADIUSServerCACAUserAccessPointRADIUSServerRADIUSServerRADIUSServerCACA1123123Establish the communication between the AP.2Confirm the CA certification between the RADIUS server and the equipment.3Send the user certification to the RADIUS server to authenticatethe user certification.1Establish the communication between the AP.2Confirm the CA certification between the RADIUS server and the equipment.3Send the user name and password to the RADIUS server for authentication.

2. Appendix50 GN-1050 Operator’s Manual — GlossaryGlossaryAd HocSystem to communicate directly between each wireless device without an Access Pos-int.AP (Access Point)Access points serve as the bridge between wired networks and wireless networks, as well as providing bridge functions between segments and IP tunnel functions indispens-able to the building of versatile, large-scale networks.BridgeA device for relaying between LAN's. The bridge determines whether to relay data based on the address of the computer to which the data is being sent. It can be used to connect networks having different protocols, or when data for broadcast to all comput-ers is received, can send this to all connected networks.ChannelThis term has the same meaning as a television or radio channel. In the 2.400 to 2.472GHz ISM band used by this product, the IEEE 802.11 standard provides for divi-sion into 11 channels numbered 1 to 11. Even on the same network, wireless devices operating on different channels cannot communicate with each other.CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance)CSMA is a method of avoiding collision by which wireless terminals listen before trans-mitting and do not transmit if they can hear transmissions from other wireless terminals. CSMA/CA is CSMA plus additional collision avoidance functions.DS (Direct Sequence)A type of spectrum diffusion signal using narrow band modulation with phase modula-tion, in which the diffusion is by means of phase modulation using a broad band diffu-sion signal (pseudo random strings).ESS ID (Extended Service Set ID)The ESS ID is similar to a name assigned to the wireless LAN network to which a unit belongs. Communication between wireless terminals which have different names can-not be performed.Wireless network can be partitioned by using different ESS ID names.IEEE (Institute of Electrical Electronics Engineers)"I-triple-E," involved in a wide range of fields from communications and computer to medicine and biology, with primary activities related to publishing articles and sponsor-ing conferences, but also recommending and setting of standards.The organization sponsoring Committee 802 which is responsible for LAN related mat-ters.IEEE 802.11b/IEEE 802.11gThe wireless LAN standard established by the IEEE.InfrastructureSystem to integrate wireless LAN with wired LANLAN (Local Area Network)A network configured from mutual connections between computers within a limited area.Also called an "intranet" or "business or regional data communications network."
2. AppendixGN-1050 Operator’s Manual — Glossary 51RoamingThis term has the same meaning as roaming for a portable phone or PHS. The AP is in the role commonly called the “antenna/base station” for the phone or PHS, and the user unit is in the role of the phone itself.RouterA device for relaying between LAN's. The router determines data addresses by the combination of a network address assigned to the network and an individual computer address. Used particularly in medium-scale and larger LAN systems with very large number of clients, to reduce traffic (congestion) on communication lines.RSSI (Receive Signal Strength Indication)A numeric indicator of incoming signal strength.RTS (Request To Send)In communication via AP, transmission is controlled by CSMA/CA plus RTS. In RTS, a wireless terminal asks the AP if it is able to transmit, and only transmits after an OK-to-send acknowledgement signal is returned. This serves to avoid unnecessary collisions when hidden terminals exist because hidden terminals cannot transmit.Spectrum Diffusion TransmissionA method of transmission in which signals that are normally transmitted over a given limited frequency band undergo narrow band modulation (primary modulation), then again diffuse modulation (secondary modulation) to intentionally diffuse the signal over a broad frequency spectrum.
