Section 3 - Configuration

SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection, also known as

dynamic packet filtering) helps to prevent cyber

attacks by tracking more state per session. It

validates that the traffic passing through the

session conforms to the protocol.

Select one of the following for TCP and UDP

ports:

Endpoint Independent

- Any incoming traffic

sent to an open port will be forwarded to the

application that opened the port. The port will

close if idle for 5 minutes.

Address Restricted

- Incoming traffic must match

the IP address of the outgoing connection.

Address + Port Restriction

- Incoming traffic

must match the IP address and port of the

outgoing connection.

Firewall Settings

A firewall protects your network from the outside world. The D-Link DAP-1350 offers a firewall type functionality. The

SPI feature helps prevent cyber attacks. Sometimes you may want a computer exposed to the outside world for certain

types of applications. If you choose to expose a computer, you can enable DMZ. DMZ is short for Demilitarized Zone.

This option will expose the chosen computer completely to the outside world.

Set the transmit power of the antennas.

Note:

Transmit power is regulated by international

standard. Users are forbidden to change its

maximum limit.

Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to

synchronize a wireless network. Specify a value.

100 is the default setting and is recommended.

(Delivery Traffic Indication Message) 1 is the default

setting. A DTIM is a countdown informing clients

of the next window for listening to broadcast and

multicast messages.

This value should remain at its default setting of

2346. If inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a

minor modification should be made.

The fragmentation threshold, which is specified in bytes, determines whether packets will be fragmented. Packets exceeding

the 2346 byte setting will be fragmented before transmission. 2346 is the default setting.

WMM is QoS for your wireless network. This will improve the quality of video and voice applications for your wireless

clients.

Check this box to reduce the guard interval time therefore increasing the data capacity.

However, it’s less reliable and may

create higher data loss.

Enable the Wi-Fi Protected Setup feature.

Locking the wireless security settings prevents the

settings from being changed by the Wi-Fi Protected

Setup feature of the router. Devices can still be

added to the network using Wi-Fi Protected Setup.

However, the settings of the network will not change

once this option is checked.

A PIN is a unique number that can be used to add

the router to an existing network or to create a

new network. The default PIN may be printed on

the bottom of the router. For extra security, a new

PIN can be generated. You can restore the default

PIN at any time. Only the Administrator (“admin”

account) can change or reset the PIN.

Shows the current value of the router’s PIN.

Restore the default PIN of the router.

Create a random number that is a valid PIN. This becomes the router’s PIN. You can then copy this PIN to the user interface

of the registrar.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) System is a simplified method for securing your wireless network during the “Initial setup”

as well as the “Add New Device” processes. The Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) has certified it across different products as well

as manufactures. The process is just as easy, as depressing a button for the Push-Button Method or correctly entering

the 8-digit code for the Pin-Code Method.

The time reduction in setup and ease of use are quite beneficial, while the

highest wireless Security setting of WPA2 is automatically used.

This Wizard helps you add wireless devices to the wireless network.

The wizard will either display the wireless network settings to guide you through manual configuration, prompt you to enter

the PIN for the device, or ask you to press the configuration button on the device. If the device supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup

and has a configuration button, you can add it to the network by pressing the configuration button on the device and then

the on the router within 60 seconds. The status LED on the router will flash three times if the device has been successfully

added to the network.

There are several ways to add a wireless device to your network. A “registrar” controls access to the wireless network. A

registrar only allows devices onto the wireless network if you have entered the PIN, or pressed a special Wi-Fi Protected Setup

button on the device. The router acts as a registrar for the network, although other devices may act as a registrar as well.
