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.
