Wireless Settings: VAP2 (Wireless Settings for Public Zone)
{
Basic: Enable the VAP Status if you wish to provide wireless service under
this zone. Assign an ESSID for VAP2 under Private Zone or use default
“airlive-2”, the ESSID of Private Zone will be broadcasted in default settings
to allow it to be scanned in the air.
{
Security: Configure the wireless network under Public Zone with security
encryption to prevent unauthorized wireless association if necessary. The
encryption standards supported are WEP, 802.1X, WPA-PSK and
WPA-RADIUS.
{
Advanced: The parameters in advanced are wireless settings that allow
customization of data transmission, enhanced security and wireless roaming.
{
Beacon Interval: The entered amount of time indicates how often the beacon
signal will be sent from the VAP.
{
RTS Threshold: Enter a value between 1 and 2346. RTS (Request to Send)
Threshold determines the packet size at which the system issues a request
to send (RTS) before sending the frame to prevent the hidden node problem.
The RTS mechanism will be activated if the data size exceeds the value
provided. A lower RTS Threshold setting can be useful in areas where many
client devices are associating with EAP200 or in areas where the clients are
far apart and can detect only EAP200 but not each other.
{
Fragment Threshold: Enter a value between 256 and 2346. The default is
2346. A packet size larger than this threshold will be fragmented (sent with
several pieces instead of one chunk) before transmission. A smaller value
results in smaller frames but allows a larger number of frames in
transmission. A lower Fragment Threshold setting can be useful in areas
where communication is poor or disturbed by a serious amount of radio
interference.
