CONFIG Commands

set wireless mode { both-b-and-g | b-only | g-only }

Beginning with Netopia Firmware Version 7.5.1. speciﬁes the wireless operating mode for

connecting wireless clients:

both-b-and-g

,

b-only

, or

g-only

, and locks the Gateway in

that mode.

☛

NOTE:

If you choose to limit the operating mode to B or G only, clients using the

mode you excluded will not be able to connect.

set wireless multi-ssid option { on | off }

Beginning with Netopia Firmware Version 7.5.1. enables or disables the

multi-ssid

feature

which allows you to add additional network identiﬁers (SSIDs or

Network Names

) for your

wireless network. When enabled, you can specify up to three additional SSIDs with sepa-

rate privacy settings for each. See below.

set wireless multi-ssid {second-ssid | third-ssid | fourth-ssid }

name

Speciﬁes a descriptive name for each SSID. when

multi-ssid option

is set to

on.

set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-privacy { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |

WPA-802.1x }

set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-privacy { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |

WPA-802.1x }

set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-privacy { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |

WPA-802.1x }

Speciﬁes the type of privacy enabled on multiple SSIDs when

multi-ssid option

is set to

on

. off = no privacy; WEP = WEP encryption; WPA-PSK = Wireless Protected Access/Pre-

Shared Key; WPA-802.1x = Wireless Protected Access/802.1x authentication. See

NOTE:

WEP is supported on only one SSID at a time, and should not be available if

another SSID already has it conﬁgured.

WPA2-only }

set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-wpa-ver { all | WPA1-only |

WPA2-only }

set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-wpa-ver { all | WPA1-only |

Speciﬁes the type of WPA version enabled on multiple SSIDs when

is

set to

on

and privacy is set tp

WPA-PSK

. See

set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-weplen [ 40/64bit | 128bit | 256bit ]

set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-weplen [ 40/64bit | 128bit | 256bit ]

set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-weplen [ 40/64bit | 128bit | 256bit ]

Speciﬁes the WEP key length for the multiple SSIDs, when

second-

,

third-

, or

fourth-

ssid-privacy

is set to

WEP

.

40bit

encryption is equivalent to

64bit

encryption. The longer

the key, the stronger the encryption and the more difﬁcult it is to break the encryption.

CONFIG Commands

set wireless multi-ssid second-ssid-wepkey {

hexadecimal digits

}

set wireless multi-ssid third-ssid-wepkey {

hexadecimal digits

}

set wireless multi-ssid fourth-ssid-wepkey {

hexadecimal digits

}

Speciﬁes a WEP key for the multiple SSIDs, when

second-

,

third-

, or

fourth-ssid-privacy

is set to

WEP

. For 40/64bit encryption, you need 10 digits; 26 digits for 128bit, and 58

digits for 256bit WEP. Valid hexadecimal characters are 0 – 9, a – f.

set wireless no-bridging [ off | on ]

When set to

on

, this will block wireless clients from communicating with other wireless cli-

ents on the LAN side of the Gateway.

set wireless tx-power [ full | medium | fair | low | minimal ]

Sets the wireless transmit power, scaling down the router's wireless transmit coverage by

lowering its radio power output. Default is

full

power. Transmit power settings are useful in

large venues with multiple wireless routers where you want to reuse channels. Since there

are only three non-overlapping channels in the 802.11b spectrum, it helps to size the

router's cell to match the location. This allows you to install a router to cover a small

“hole” without conﬂicting with other routers nearby.

Wireless Privacy Settings

set wireless network-id privacy option { off | WEP | WPA-PSK |

WPA-802.1x }

Speciﬁes the type of privacy enabled on the wireless LAN. off = no privacy; WEP = WEP

encryption; WPA-PSK = Wireless Protected Access/Pre-Shared Key; WPA-802.1x = Wireless

Protected Access/802.1x authentication. See

“Wireless” on page 53

for a discussion of

these options.

WPA provides Wireless Protected Access, the most secure option for your wireless net-

work. This mechanism provides the best data protection and access control. PSK requires

a Pre-Shared Key; 802.1x requires a RADIUS server for authentication.

WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, a method of encrypting data between the wireless Gate-

way and its clients. It is strongly recommended to turn this

on

as it is the primary way to

Page 294 / 351

294

protect your network and data from intruders. Note that 40bit is the same as 64bit and will

work with either type of wireless client. The default is

off

.

A single key is selected (see

default-key

) for encryption of outbound/transmitted packets.

The WEP-enabled client must have the identical key, of the same length, in the identical

slot (1..4) as the wireless Gateway, in order to successfully receive and decrypt the

packet. Similarly, the client also has a ‘default’ key that it uses to encrypt its transmis-

sions. In order for the wireless Gateway to receive the client’s data, it must likewise have

the identical key, of the same length, in the same slot. For simplicity, a wireless Gateway

and its clients need only enter, share, and use the ﬁrst key.

set wireless network-id privacy pre-shared-key

string

The Pre Shared Key is a passphrase shared between the Router and the clients and is

used to generate dynamically changing keys, when

WPA-PSK

is selected or enabled. The

passphrase can be 8 – 63 characters. It is recommended to use at least 20 characters for

best security.

set wireless network-id privacy default-keyid { 1...4 }

Speciﬁes which WEP encryption key (of 4) the wireless Gateway will use to transmit data.

The client

must

have an identical matching key, in the same numeric slot, in order to suc-

cessfully decode. Note that a client allows you to choose which of its keys it will use to

transmit. Therefore, you must have an identical key in the same numeric slot on the Gate-

way.

For simplicity, it is easiest to have both the Gateway and the client transmit with the same

key. The default is

1

.

set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key1-length

{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}

set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key2-length

{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}

set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key3-length

{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}

set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key4-length

{40/64bit, 128bit, 256bit}

Selects the length of each encryption key.

40bit

encryption is equivalent to

64bit

encryp-

tion. The longer the key, the stronger the encryption and the more difﬁcult it is to break the

encryption.

set wireless network-id privacy encryption-key4 {

The encryption keys. Enter keys using hexadecimal digits. For 40/64bit encryption, you

need 10 digits; 26 digits for 128bit, and 58 digits for 256bit WEP. Valid hexadecimal char-

acters are 0 – 9, a – f.

Example 40bit key:

02468ACE02.

Example 128bit key:

0123456789ABCDEF0123456789.

Example 256bit key:

592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F592CA140F0A238B0C61AE162F21A09C.

You must set at least one of these keys, indicated by the default-keyid.
