Description
Primary Network
Enables or disables the primary network. This field is enabled
by default.
Network Name (SSID)
Defines the wireless primary network name (SSID) to which
client devices connect. (Example: DVW326.E5C61A-2.4G).
The WLAN MAC address appears in parenthesis next to the
SSID at the top of the screen. Refer to
Understanding Default
Values and Logins on page 9 on page 1
for more information
on the SSID.
Closed Network
Hides the selected SSID when enabled so it is not visible to
wireless clients unless manually set up on the client. When
disabled, the SSID is visible. Closed Network is disabled by
default to allow broadcasting the primary network name
(SSID). Refer to
Enabling a Closed Network on the Primary
Network on page 75
to set up a closed network.
AP Isolate
Disabled by default. When enabled, it prevents wireless client
stations from communicating with each other.
WPA
Enables or disables the Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
security protocol. WPA is a subset of the IEEE 802.11i
standard. Key differences between WPA and WEP are user
authentication and improved data encryption. Setting WPA
alone with a pre-shared key requires a RADIUS or TACACS
server for authentication. This method is mostly used in large
enterprise implementations.
WPA-PSK
Enables or disables WPA Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK). If you
do not have an external RADIUS server, use WPA-PSK,
which requires a single (identical) password entered into
wireless gateway and wireless client. As long as the
passwords match, a client is granted access to the wireless
LAN. This is the default residential subscriber setting and
uses TKIP encryption.
WPA2
Enables or disables WPA2. This advanced protocol is
certified through Wi-Fi Alliance's WPA2 program and
implements the mandatory elements of 802.11i. In particular,
it has an AES-based algorithm (CCMP) that is considered
fully secure. Setting WPA2 alone with a pre-shared key
requires a RADIUS or TACACS server for authentication.
This method is mostly used in large enterprise
implementations.
WPA2-PSK
Enables or disables WPA2-PSK. If you do not have an
external RADIUS server, use WPA2-PSK, which requires a
single (identical) password entered into wireless gateway and
wireless client. As long as the passwords match, a client is
granted access to the wireless LAN. This is the
recommended residential subscriber option. It is more secure
than WPA-PSK and uses AES encryption.
WPA/WPA2 Encryption
Sets WPA/WPA2 encryption to AES or TKIP+AES. The
default is AES.

WPA Pre-Shared Key
Displays (checked) or hides (unchecked) the WPA key. The
encryption mechanisms for WPA and WPA-PSK are the
same, except that WPA-PSK uses a simple common
password instead of user-specific credentials.
Show Key
Displays the pre-shared key when checked. The pre-shared
key for the DVW326 is the last 13 characters of the device’s
serial number.
RADIUS Server
Defines the IP address of the RADIUS server, if used.
RADIUS Port
Defines a RADIUS port number when WPA or 802.1x network
authentication is selected.
RADIUS Key
Defines the RADIUS Key when WPA or 802.1x network
authentication is selected.
Group Key Rotation Interval
Allows the device to generate the best possible random
group key and update all the key-management capable
stations periodically. This field is set to 0 by default.
WPA/WPA2 Re-auth Interval
Sends a new group key to all clients at the specified interval
for a wireless router (if using WPA-PSK key management) or
RADIUS server (if using WPA key management). The re-
keying process is the WPA equivalent of automatically
changing the WEP key for a wireless access point and all
stations in the WLAN on a periodic basis. Setting the WPA
Group Key Update Timer is also supported in WPA-PSK
mode.
WEP Encryption
Enables or disables WEP encryption. If you do not have
wireless clients that can use WPA or WPA2, you can use WEP
key encrypting. A higher bit key offers better security. WEP
encryption scrambles the data transmitted between the wireless
stations and the DVW326 to keep network communications
private. It encrypts unicast and multicast communications in a
network. Both the wireless stations and the DVW326 must use
the same WEP key. Data Encryption can be set to WEP
128-
bit, 64-bit,
or
Disable.
Shared Key Authentication
Defines Shared Key Authentication as optional or required.
Shared Key is an authentication method used by wireless
LANs, which follow the IEEE 802.11 standard. Wireless
devices authenticate each other by using a secret key that is
kept by both devices.
802.1x Authentication
Enables or disables 802.1x to authenticate wireless clients.
Network Key 1-4
Pre-defines up to 4 keys for 64-bit or 128-bit (64-bit keys
require 10 hexadecimal digits) (128-bit key require 26
hexadecimal digits).
Current Network Key
Selects one of the four pre-defined keys as the current
network key.
Passphrase
Sets the WEP encryption key by entering a word or group of
printable characters in the Passphrase box and clicking
Generate WEP keys. These characters are case sensitive.

Enabling a Closed Network on the Primary Network
You can enable the Closed Network option so the SSID cannot be broadcast or seen by
others.
Steps
To enable a closed network:
1.
Access the pull down menu for the
Closed Network
.
2. Choose
Enabled
to enable a closed network. Automatic Security Configuration is
disabled.
Generate WEP Keys
Forces the device to generate 4 WEP keys automatically.
Apply
Saves changes.
Automatic Security Configuration
— Sets up WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) for devices connecting
