permissions on the Network. One of the more prevalent Protocols used to authenticate
users is the RADIUS Protocol.
With a built-in RADIUS Client the DSA-3200 can
support both Local and RADIUS authentication mechanisms simultaneously, allowing
one to easily incorporate an existing user password database into the
Airspot™
Hot
Spot System. The DSA-3200 also provides a built-in user database, allowing dynamic
account creation/deletion to coexist with the more static RADIUS database.

Things to Consider
1.2.1
Audience
This manual is intended for system or network administrators possessing basic
networking knowledge to complete step by step instructions in this manual in order to
use the DSA-3200 to centralize Network access and management. This manual
attempts to explain in detail the wealth of functions the DSA-3200 supports, however
there may be situations and circumstances not considered during the authoring of this
document. Technical Support may only assist with the configuration of the DSA-3200
through the Web-UI or SSH, and may not troubleshoot or repair ill configured external
systems or Networks.
1.2.2
Document Convention
Whenever an important piece of information such as a recommendation or warning
needs to be presented, said information is displayed in a box in italics similar to the
recommendation below. These recommendations will for the most part be used to help
in increasing the security and usability of your Hot Spot.
Warning:
To Increase security, you should immediately change the Administrator’s
password.

2.3 Panel Function Descriptions
Device LED Indicators
Power LED:
Will illuminate when the Power Supply is connected to the DSA-3200 and an
appropriate AC power outlet (110VAC). If the LED does not illuminate when the device is plugged
in, try a known good power outlet. If the LED still does not light with a known good outlet, please
contact Technical Support for assistance.
Status LED:
A solid light indicates a functional, ready state of operation. This LED will blink
during a device restart or reconfigure, then illuminate solid to indicate proper operation. If this
LED continuously flashes or does not illuminate when the device is powered on, please contact
Technical Support for assistance.
Public WLAN LED:
This indicator will flash to indicate proper RF operation of the internal AP.
The LED will blink rapidly with activity.
WAN LED:
A solid light indicates a valid Ethernet Link to the WAN modem/switch. LEDs will blink
to indicate WAN activity. No light indicates a no-link state (no cable or bad cable).
Private/Public LAN LEDs:
A solid light indicates a valid Ethernet Link to a hub/switch or PC.
LEDs will blink to indicate activity. No light indicates a no-link state (no cable or bad cable).
WAN LED –
A valid Ethernet Link will
produce a solid glow. The
LED will blink with activity.
Power LED –
Solid glow when
the DSA-3200 is
powered on.
Private LAN LEDs –
A valid Ethernet Link
will produce a solid
glow. The LEDs will
blink with activity.
Status LED –
Solid glow when
device is ready. Will
flash during device
restart or reconfigure.
Public LAN LEDs –
A valid Ethernet Link
will produce a solid
glow. The LEDs will
blink with activity.
Public WLAN LED –
Will flash to indicate

Device Physical Connections
Serial COM Port:
This port serves two distinct purposes:
1.
Connect to a DSA-3100P to auto-generate temporary User accounts and print detailed receipts to
be given to customers. Receipts include pricing and Wi-Fi Network information (SSID, WEP, etc.)
2.
Use the included Null modem cable to connect to a PC with a serial COM port in order
troubleshoot, debug, change admin password, or to restore the factory default settings without
using the Web-based UI. Configure Terminal Emulation software (Hyperterminal) as follows: 9600,
8, N, 1, No flow control.
WAN Port:
Connects to a network not managed by the DSA-3200 via an Ethernet port
on most Cable or xDSL modems, or a Switch or Hub in an existing Ethernet Network.
Public LAN Ports (1 and 2):
The Public LAN ports connect to the managed network
that will require user authentication prior to granting Network Access.
This Network
may consist of Hubs and/or Switches (non-L3) as well as 802.11 Access Points.
Private LAN Ports (1 and 2):
The Private LAN port is used to connect to the trusted
Ethernet network that will not require authentication prior to access.
Reset Button:
Push and release to restart, push and hold for 15s to reset defaults.
DC Power Socket:
Connect the power supply to a wall outlet before connecting here.
WAN
Port -
Connect directly to
an Ethernet Cable
or DSL modem or
to an existing LAN
infrastructure.
Reset button –
Restore the factory
default configuration.
Press once to reboot,
press and hold for 15
seconds to reset.
COM Port -
System debugging
menu via Terminal

3 Managing the D-Link DSA-3200
3.1 Getting Started
This guide will provide information and instruction for administrators of the DSA-3200
Wireless G Public/Private Gateway. This manual corresponds with the version of
firmware shipped with the DSA-3200 (v 1.00). From time to time D-Link may release
new firmware to add new features or improve on existing ones. These firmware
upgrades can be found on the Technical Support Website
.
The Support Website also has plenty of great documentation in the way of FAQs and
updated manuals, etc. Please take a moment to visit support.dlink.com prior to
contacting Technical Support.
3.2 System Concept
The DSA-3200 has the ability to allow or deny access to Network resources
based
on
various
types
of
credentials
(IP
address,
MAC
address,
or
username/password). From a single Broadband Internet connection, the DSA-3200
creates 3 separate networks using NAT, each with its own DHCP server. The WLAN
RF interface is an 802.11b/g network that can be configured to either authenticate
users or use WPA for enhanced wireless security. The Public LAN interface can be
configured to authenticate users so it may serve as a secondary Public access
network. The third Private LAN interface does not authenticate users and is intended
to service the back office or an existing office network.
Authentication of users is accomplished through any Java enabled Web browser. After
a user connects to one of the Public Access networks and attempts to browse the
Internet, they will be redirected to a customizable login page hosted on the DSA-3200
without or without SSL encryption. A Walled Garden may be defined to allow users that
have not authenticated to access those URLs specified in the Free Surf Zone. Once
users authenticate successfully via the Internal Database or an external RADIUS
server, the Web browser will once again be redirected to a specified URL. At this point
