5.4. Wireless Settings - Basic In basic setting page , you can set wireless Radio, Mode, Band, SSID, and Channel. Radio: You can turn on/off wireless radio. If wi rele ss Radio is off, you cannot associate with AP through wireless. Mode: In this device, we support three operation mode s which are AP router and AP route with WDS .
34 ESSID1~4: ESSID is the na me of your wireless network. It migh t be a unique name to identify this wireless devic e in the Wireless LAN. It is case sensitive and up to 32 printable chara cters. You might change the default ESSID for added security.
- WDS with AP Router Wireless Distribution System , a system t hat enable s the wireless interconnection o f access point, allo ws a wireless network to be extended us ing multiple APs without a wired backbone to link the m. Each WDS AP needs same channel and encryption type settings.
36 Fragment Threshold: This specifies the maximu m size of a packet during the fragmentation of data to be transmitted . If you set this value too low, it will result in bad performance. RTS Threshold: When the packe t size is smaller than the RTS threshold, the wireless router will not use the R TS/CTS me chanism to send this packet.
37 Data Rate: The “Da ta Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit data packets. The access point will use t he highest pos sible selected transmission rate to transmit the data packets. N Data Rate: The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access p oint uses to transmit data packe ts for N compliant w ireless nodes.
- Securi ty This Access Point provides complete wirele ss LAN security functions, included are WEP, IEEE 802.1x, IEEE 802.1x with WEP, WPA with pre-shared key and WPA with RADIUS. With these se curity functions, you can prev ent your wireless LAN from illegal ac cess.
39 IEEE 802.1x is an authentication protocol. Every us er must use a valid account to login to this Access Point b efore accessing the w ireless LAN. The authentication is processed b y a RADIUS server. This mode only authenticates users by IEEE 802.1x , but it does not encrypt the data during communication.
40 Authentication Type: There are two authenticatio n types: "Open System" and "Sha red Key" . Both AP and wireless client must be con figured with the same authentication type. Key Length: You can select the WEP ke y length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-bit.
41 WP A-Radius Encryption Wi-Fi Protected Access ( WPA ) is an advanced security standard. Yo u can use an external RADIUS server to authenticate wireles s stations and provide the session ke y to encrypt data during communication. It uses TKIP o r C C M P ( AES ) to change the encryption key frequently.
42 - MAC Address F iltering This wireless router supports MAC Address Control, which prevents un authorized clients from accessing your wireless network.
43 WPS is the simplest way to establish a connection be tween the wireless clients a nd the wireless router. You don’t have to sele ct the encry ptio n mode and fill in a long encr yptio n passphrase every time when you try to setup a wireless connection.
44 Authentication Mode: It shows the active authe ntication mode for the wireless connection. Passphrase Key: It shows the passphrase key that is randomly generated b y the wireless router during the WPS process. Y ou may need this information when using a device which doesn ’t support WPS.
- Client List This WLAN C lient Table shows the Wirele ss client associate to this Wireless Router. - Policy The Router can allow you to set up the Wireless Acce ss Policy.
5.5. Firewall Settings The Router prov ides extensive firewall pro tection by restricting connection para meters, thus limiting the risk of hacker attacks, and def ending against a wide array of co mmon Internet attacks.
47 packets going to your WAN port IP address to a particular IP address in your LAN. The difference between the virtual server and the D MZ function is that the virtual server re-directs a particular service/Internet application (e.
- Denial of Service (DoS) The Router's firewall can block common hacker at tacks, including Denial of Service, Ping of Death, Port Scan and Sync Flood. If Inter net attacks oc cur the router can log the ev ents. Ping of Death: Pro tections from Ping of Death attack.
