Parental Control Time of Day Filter Page

Block all Internet traffic to and from specified devices on your SVG1501 network based

on day and time settings. You can block Internet traffic for the entire day or for certain

times within each day for specific users. You can add up to 30 categories (filter names)

with different day and time settings. You enter a name for each time filter in the

Add

New Policy

field.

Apply time filters for limited Internet access for each user in the

Time Access Rule

field

on the

Parental Control User Setup Page

.

After creating each new time of day policy, click

Apply

to store and activate the settings.

The same category names for blocking profiles appear in the Parental Control User Setup

page under the “Time Access Rule” section where each user can be assigned up to four

categories simultaneously.

Parental Control Local Log Page

Generate an event log that shows a running list of the last 30 Parental Control access

violations, including:

•

If the user’s Internet access is blocked (time filter)

•

If a blocked keyword is detected in the URL

•

If a blocked domain is detected in the URL

•

If the online lookup service detects that the URL falls under a blocked category

Wireless Pages

To configure your wireless LAN (WLAN), click any Wireless submenu option to view or

change the configuration information for that option. WPA or WPA2 encryption provides

higher security than WEP encryption, but older wireless client cards may not support the

newer WPA or WPA2 encryption methods.

Wireless 802.11 Radio Page

Configure the Wireless Radio parameters, including the current country and channel

number.

Field Descriptions for the Wireless 802.11 Radio Page

Field

Description

Wireless Interfaces

Shows the MAC address of the installed wireless card. It is not

configurable.

Wireless

Shows if the wireless network is enabled or disabled

Country

Restricts the channel set based on the country’s regulatory

requirements. This is a display-only field.

Output Power

Sets a percentage of the output power of the hardware’s

maximum capability.

Channel

Selects the channel for access point (AP) operation. the list of

available channels depends on the designated country.

For this field, the channel selected on the wireless clients on

your WLAN must be the same as the channel selected on the

SVG1501.

Field

Description

Primary Network

When

Enabled

, transmits beacon frames with the Primary

Network SSID.

Network Name (SSID)

Sets the Network Name (SSID) of the Primary wireless

network using a 1-32 ASCII character string.

Closed Network

In a closed network, users type the SSID into the client

application instead of selecting the SSID from a list..

WPA

Enables or disables Wi-Fi Protected Access encryption.

WPA-PSK

Enables or disables a local WPA pre-shared key passphrase.

WPA2

Enables or disables Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 encryption.

WPA2-PSK

Enables or disables a local WPA2 pre-shared key passphrase.

WPA/WPA2 Encryption

Sets encryption mode to: TKIP, AES, or TKIP + AES. AES.

Field

Description

WPA Pre-Shared Key

Show Key

Sets the WPA Pre-Shared Key (PSK); either an 8-63 ASCII

character string or a 64-digit hex number. This is specified

when the Network Authentication method is WPA-PSK.

Show Key

- displays the WPA Pre-Shared Key.

RADIUS Server

Sets the RADIUS server IP address to use for client

authentication using the dotted-decimal format

(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).

RADIUS Port

Sets the UDP port number of the RADIUS server; default is

1812.

RADIUS Key

Sets the shared secret for the RADIUS connection; key is a 0

to 255 character ASCII string.

Group Key Rotation Interval

Sets the WPA Group Rekey Interval in seconds. Set to zero to

disable periodic rekeying.

WPA/WPA2 Re-auth Interval

Sets the amount of time the wireless router can wait before

re-establishing authentication with the CPE.

WEP Encryption

Enables or disables Wired Equivalent Privacy encryption.

Shared Key Authentication

Sends an authentication request to the access point. Then the

access point sends a challenge text to the CPE.

The CPE encrypts challenge text which it sends to the access

point. The access point decrypts and compares the message

with the original challenge text. If they are the same, the

access point lets the CPE connect; if it does not match, the

access point does not let the CPE connect.

802.1x Authentication

Uses a stronger authentication than WEP and can be used in

addition..

Network Key 1 – 4

Sets the static WEP keys when WEP encryption is enabled.

•

Enter five ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal digits for a

64-bit key.

•

Enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal digits for a

128-bit key.

When both WPA encryption and WEP encryption are enabled,

only keys 2 and 3 are available for WEP encryption.

Current Network Key

Selects the encryption (transmit) key when WEP encryption is

enabled.

PassPhrase

Sets the text to use for WEP key generation.

Description

54g™ Mode

Sets these network modes:

54g Auto

54g Performance

54g LRS

802.11b only

54g Auto accepts 54g, 802.11g, and 802.11b clients but

optimizes performance based on the type of connected

clients. 54g Performance accepts only 54g clients and

provides the highest performance throughout; nearby 802.11b

networks may have degraded performance. 54g LRS

interoperates with the widest variety of 54g, 802.11g, and

802.11b clients. 802.11b accepts only 802.11b clients.

Basic Rate Set

Determines which rates are advertised as basic rates. Default

uses the driver defaults. “All” sets all available rates as basic

rates.

54g™ Protection

Improves performance in Auto mode using RTS/CTS

protection in mixed 802.11g + 802.11b networks. Turn

protection off to maximize 802.11g throughput under most

conditions.

XPress™ Technology

Enhances Wi-Fi throughput and efficiency used when there

are mixed wireless networks in the surrounding area from

802.11a/b/g networks.
