HITRON CGN2 USER’S GUIDE

WEP Key Length

Use this field to specify the length of the security key

used to allow wireless devices to join the network. The

longer the key, the more secure it is.



Select

64-bit

to use a ten-digit security key.



Select

128-bit

to use a twenty-six-digit security key.

WEP Key 1~4

Use these fields to define the security keys that all

wireless devices on the network must use to join the

network.

The CGN2 supports up to four WEP keys, of which you

can select one as the default. You should input the

same four keys, in the same order, in your network’s

wireless clients. Your CGN2 and your wireless clients

can use different default keys, as long as all four keys

are present and in the same order. If your wireless client

supports only a single WEP key, use the CGN2’s default

key.

Enter the keys in hexadecimal format (using the digits

and the letters

Default WEP Key

Select the number of the security key that you want the

CGN2 to use as its default authentication key for

transmissions.

Authentication

Select the authentication mode that you want to use:



Select

Open System

to allow wireless clients to

authenticate (identify themselves) to the CGN2

before presenting their security credentials (WEP

keys).



Select

Shared Key

to use the WEP key in the

authentication process. When a client wants to

associate, the CGN2 sends an unencrypted

challenge message. The client must use the WEP

key to encrypt the challenge message and return it to

the CGN2, which then decrypts the message and

compares the result with its original message.

Open System

authentication is the more secure of the

two authentication types, since while the

Shared Key

system appears more robust, it is possible to derive

secure data by capturing the challenge messages.



Select

Automatic

to have the CGN2 choose the

authentication method.

Group Key Update

Interval

Enter the frequency (in seconds) with which you want

Pre-Shared Key

Enter the pre-shared key that you want to use for your

wireless network. You will need to enter this key into

your wireless clients in order to allow them to connect to

the network.

Pre-Authentication

Use this field to allow pre-authentication (

Enable

) in

WPA2, or deny pre-authentication requests (

Disable

In preauthentication, a WPA2 wireless client can

perform authentication with other wireless access points

in its range when it is still connected to its current

wireless access point. This allows mobile wireless

clients to connect to new access points more quickly,

permitting more efficient roaming.
