3. System Configuration Supported Authentication Methods: Select the authentication method for the AP. If client equipment supports it, it is always best to select WPA/WPA2 and AES encryption. WEP and WPA with TKIP have been proven vulnerable to cryptanalysis. If WEP is selected: WEP Mode: Select Open System or Shared System. Open System is more secure than Shared, due to the way encryption keys are used. WEP Key Length: Select the WEP key length. 128-bit keys offer more security, but are not supported on all devices. WEP keys must be entered in Hexidecimal. WEP Key 1-4: Up to 4 WEP keys can be used on a single network. Default Transmit Key: This selects the default transmit key for the network. If WPA/WPA2 is selected: WPA/WPA2 Encryption Methods: Select one or both of TKIP or AES for encrypting WPA/WPA2 connections. AES is more secure, and is required for the AP to advertise itself as 802.11n (if that hardware mode is selected). WPA Password: The password that clients will use to connect to the AP. Once the Wireless AP Settings have been filled out, click Apply, then wait for the page to refresh. The next step is to set up a DHCP server for wireless clients. Click the link next to DHCP Server in the IP settings section, or go to System: DHCP Server page. More information on configuring DHCP can be found in 3.6.2 Configure the DHCP Server. Note: The Wireless screen on the Status: Statistics page shows the list of clients connected to the WAP. Wireless Client Configuration: Select Wireless Client in the Wireless Settings section. Doing this will make the Wireless Client Settings section visible. Select DHCP or Static for the Configuration Method • If you selected Static, manually enter the new IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway and DNS server details. This selection automatically disables the DHCP client. • If you selected DHCP, the device will search for configuration details from a DHCP server on your management LAN. This selection automatically disables any static address. The device MAC address can be found on a label on the base plate. When enabled in client mode, the wireless LAN will operate as the main network connection to the device. Failover is available, though it not enabled by default. Use Failover Interface to select the device to failover to in case of wireless outage and specify Probe Addresses of the peers to probe for connectivity detection. 32
