It also offers a wide range of security options. Supported Standards and Conventions The following standards and conventions are supported: • Standards Compliant. The Wireless Access Point complies with the IEEE 802.11g for Wireless LANs. • WEP support. Support for WEP is included. 64-bit, 128-bit, and 152-bit keys are supported. • Full WPA and WPA2 support. WPA and WPA2 enterprise class strong security with RADIUS and certificate authentication as well as dynamic encryption key generation. WPAPSK and WPA2-PSK pre-shared key authentication without the overhead of RADIUS servers but with all of the strong security of WPA. • DHCP Client Support. DHCP provides a dynamic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. The WG302 can act as a client and obtain information from your DHPC server. • Multiple BSSIDs. Support for multiple BSSIDs. When one AP is connected to a wired network and a set of wireless stations it is referred to as a Basic Service Set (BSS). The Basic Service Set Identifier (BSSID) is a 32-character unique identifier attached to the header of packets sent over a WLAN that differentiated one WLAN from another when a mobile device tries to connect to the network. • SNMP Support. Support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Management Information Base (MIB) management. • 802.11Q VLAN (Virtual Wireless LAN) Support. A network of computers that behave as if they are connected to the same network even though they actually may be physically located on different segments of a LAN. VLANs are configured through software rather than hardware, which makes them extremely flexible. VLANs are very useful for user/host management, bandwidth allocation and resource optimization.
