Authentication
Toggles between the two authentication modes:
Open System
or
Shared Key
:
• An
Open system
network allows connections from any client without
authenticating whether that client has permission to associate with the
network.
• A
Shared key network
requires the client to submit a key which is shared by
the network Wireless Access Point before it is given permission to associate
with the network.
In this case the key is the same as the WEP encryption
key
.
• In both cases, even after association has taken place, if WEP encryption has
also been enabled then the client will still require the WEP key to encrypt and
decrypt packets in order to communicate successfully with the network.
Encryption
Cycles through the available encryption options:
Clear Text, WEP64, and
WEP128
. Wired Equivalent Privacy is an 802.11 security protocol for wireless
networks. The WEP encryption method is designed to provide the "equivalent"
security available in wireline networks.
•
Clear Text
causes network packets to be sent out as unencrypted text.
•
WEP64
enables WEP encryption at 64-bits. In this case all packets will be
transmitted with their contents encrypted using the Default WEP Key.
•
WEP128
enables WEP encryption at 128-bits. All packets are transmitted
with their contents encrypted using the Default WEP Key.
• If the key is not the correct size, the system will resize it to match the number
of bits required for the WEP encryption mode selected.
Generate (Passphrase)
Pressing the
Generate
button displays an on-screen keyboard which allows
you to enter a passphrase and then AUTOMATICALLY generate all four WEP
keys which are compatible only among Modero panels.
Note:
The code key generator on Modero panels use the same key generation
formula. Therefore, this same Passphrase generates identical keys when done
on any Modero because they all use the same
Modero-specific generator. The Passphrase generator is case sensitive.
• Take these WEP keys and enter it into the target WAP. When also working
with multiple panels, these WEP Keys (
identical across all Modero panels
)
must be entered manually into the target WAP.
• Once all panels have been setup in this way, these WEP keys can then be
entered into the associated Wireless Access Point for ease of installation.
• The Passphrase generator is unique to Modero panels. The Key generator on
these Modero panels are specific and do not generate the same keys as
other external non-AMX wireless devices.
- Example: If you enter the word
apple
into the Passphrase generator on a
3rd-party Wireless Access Point, it comes back with 1a:2b:3c:4d:etc.
Entering the same
apple
in the Passphrase generator of any Modero panel
generates a different key: a1:b2:c3:d4:etc. Only AMX Modero panels
generate
the same
Current Key by using a unique Passphrase key
generation technology. A Current Key string, when generated anywhere
else, will not match those created on the Modero panels.
Note:
The code key generator on Modero panels use the same key generation
formula. The passphrase generator is case sensitive.
Default Key
Cycles through the four available WEP key identifiers in order to select a WEP
key to use.
As the Default Key value is altered (through selection) the
corresponding Current Key is displayed. Each of these corresponds to a WEP
key.
• This feature is useful for accessing different networks without having to
re-enter that networks’ WEP key.
• It is also sometimes used to set up a rotating key schedule to provide an extra
layer of security.
