Security

This page allows you to configure security features of the wireless LAN interface. You can

set up configuration manually or through WPS (Wi-Fi protected Setup). WPS uses a push-

button or a PIN to simplify the secure network setup. With WPS, 8520-B1 can automatically

set the SSID or network name as part of the setup process and provide strong encryption

keys to client devices. You do not need to configure SSID, wireless security setting, etc., in

the client software. In order to use WPS, the wireless client software must also support

WPS.

WPS Setup AP

1.

WPS Setup:

Wi-Fi protected setting (WPS) can create encrypted connection

between wireless network clients and the router simply and quickly. Without

selecting an encryption mode and configuring a key, you only need to enter the

correct PIN code or select the “Push Button”(press the WPS button on the router’s

back panel) to easily configure WPS.Instructions for operation are described below:

2.

Push Button:

Press the WPS button for about 1 second and the WPS LED will keep

flashing for about 2 minutes, which indicates the function is enabled. During this

time, wireless client can enable WPS/PBC for authentication negotiation; if

negotiation succeeds, then the WPS LED keeps “always on”. A wireless cli

ent is

successfully connected.

3.

PIN: To use PIN

,

you must know wireless client’s PIN code and input it in its text

box, then save this configuraton. Meanwhile, use the same PIN code in the client for

connection.

Note: The WPS feature only functions with wireless network available.

Network Authentication: To secure your wireless network, system provides several

authentication modes:



Open: you can select “no encryption” or WEP

（

64 bits/128 bits

）

as encryption

algorithm.



Shared: you can select WEP 64 bits/ WEP 128 bits as encryption algorithm.



WPA-PSK: you can select AES, TKIP or TKIP+AES as encryption algorithm.



WPA2-PSK: you can select AES, TKIP or TKIP+AES as encryption algorithm.



Mixed WPA/ WPA2-PSK: you can select AES, TKIP or TKIP+AES as encryption

algorithm.

Manual Setup AP:

1. Network Authentication:

There are eight wireless authentication modes supported by the

Router. If you do not want to use wireless security, select the typo of

Open

, and select the type of WEP

Encryption,

Disabled

.

1. WEP:

WEP is a basic encryption method, which is not as secure as WPA.

Open and Shared authentications all use WEP.

Encryption Strength: 64bits (10 hex digits) or 128bits (26 hex digits)

Current Network key: Select which TX Key to use. The default is 1.

Network Key 1-4: Enter the WEP keys manually.

2. 802.1x:

This option feature WEP used in coordination with a Radius Server.

3. WPA:

WPA is used in coordination with a Radius Server. (This should only

be used when a Radius Server is connected to the Router.)

Radius Server IP: Enter the IP address of the Radius Server.

Radius Port: Enter the Port number (default 1812) of the Server.

Radius Key: Enter the key shared between Router and Server.

WPA Encryption: WPA supports 2 methods TKIP (default), AES and

with dynamic encryption keys.

4. WPA-PSK:

WPA Pre-Shared Key: Enter a Passphrase of 8-63 characters.

WPA Group Rekey Interval: Enter a Key Renewal period.

WPA Encryption: WPA supports 3 methods TKIP (default), AES and

TKIP+AES with dynamic encryption keys.

5. WPA2:

WPA Encryption: The default is AES.

6. WPA2-PSK:

WPA Encryption: The default is AES.

7. Mixed WPA2/WPA:

WPA Encryption: The default is TKIP+AES.

8. Mixed WPA2/WPA-PSK:

WPA Encryption: The default is TKIP+AES.

MAC Filter

Wireless access can be filtered by using the MAC addresses of the wireless devices

transmitting within your network’s radius.

To filter wireless users by MAC Address, select

Allow

or

Deny

according to your demand. If

you do not wish to filter users by MAC Address, keep the default setting,

Wireless Bridge

This page allows you to configure wireless bridge features of the wireless LAN

interface.

You can select Wireless Bridge (also known as Wireless Distribution System) to disable

access point functionality. Selecting Access Point enables access point functionality. Wireless

bridge functionality will still be available and wireless stations will be able to associate to the

AP. Select Disabled in Bridge Restrict which disables wireless bridge restriction. Any wireless

bridge will be granted access. Selecting Enabled or Enabled (Scan) enables wireless bridge

restriction. Only those bridges selected in Remote Bridges will be granted access.

Click "Refresh" to update the remote bridges. Wait for few seconds to update.

Click

"Apply/Save"

to configure the wireless bridge options.
