Here are the descriptions of every setup items:
Parameter
Description
TKIP
TKIP will change the encryption key frequently to enhance the
wireless LAN security.
AES
AES uses CCMP protocol to change encryption key frequently.
AES can provide high level encryption to enhance the wireless
LAN security.
TKIP/AES
TKIP or AES based on the other communication peer
automatically.
Key renewal Interval
Router generates key that is actually used for the encryption
between the host and router at interval defined.
PMK Cache Period
WPA2 wireless clients and wireless AP cache the results of 802.1X
authentications. Therefore, access is much faster when a wireless
client roams back to a wireless access point to which the client
already authenticated.
Preauthentication
WPA2 wireless client can perform an 802.1X authentication with
other wireless access points in its range when it is still connected to
its current wireless access point.
IP Address
The IP address of external RADIUS server.
Port
The service port of the external RADIUS server.
Shared Secret
The password used by external RADIUS server.
Session Timeout
RADIUS server sets timeout session for the clients as pe the credit
available.
Idle Timeout
Clients will be timeout if it remains idle for time specified.
Policy
You can also secure wireless by defining policy.
Add a station MAC
Enter the station MAC Address that will be either allowed or
rejected as per the policy defined.
When you finish with all settings, please click ‘
Apply
’ button to continue with other
setup procedures.

2-7-4 WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the simplest way to build connection between wireless
network clients and this wireless router. You don’t have to select encryption mode and
input a long encryption passphrase every time when you need to setup a wireless client,
you only have to press a button on wireless client and this wireless router, and the WPS
will do the rest for you.
This wireless router supports two types of WPS: Push-Button Configuration (PBC), and
PIN code. If you want to use PBC, you have to push a specific button on the wireless
client to start WPS mode, and switch this wireless router to WPS mode too. You can push
Reset/WPS button of this wireless router, or click ‘Start PBC’ button in the web
configuration interface to do this; if you want to use PIN code, you have to know the PIN
code of wireless client and switch it to WPS mode, then provide the PIN code of the
wireless client you wish to connect to this wireless router.
Please click ‘
WPS
’ menu on the left of web management interface, under the ‘
Wireless
tab, and the following screen will be displayed on your web browser.

Select PBC if you wish to connect using push button. Also, enable
PBC on clients so they can connect with WPS security.
PIN

using WPS security.
You can view the WPS current status under summary.
2-6-5 WDS (Wireless Distribution System)
WDS mode is used to extend the wireless network coverage. The AP/Router can be
linked to other AP using WDS. To set up links between access point units, you must
configure the Wireless Distribution System (WDS) forwarding table by specifying the
wireless MAC address of all units to which you want to forward traffic.
This uses the MAC addresses of the station and that of the AP connected to it on the
transmitting LAN, and the MAC addresses of the AP functioning as a wireless
repeater/bridge and that of the station connected to it on a neighboring LAN in the 802.11
frame header.
Note: The wireless AP/Router does not support the spanning tree algorithm. WDS
links should be configured appropriately to avoid causing loops on the network.
To set
WDS
settings, Please click ‘
WDS
’ menu on the left of web management interface,
under the ‘
Wireless
’ tab.

allows the wireless AP/Router to associate with other AP/Router in the
network and use their WDS MAC list.
Bridge Mode
Operates as a standard bridge that forwards traffic between WDS links
(links that connect to other AP/wireless bridges). Here you need to
configure WDS MAC list.
Repeater Mode
