SSID (ESSID)
Service Set Identifier (SSID) or Network Name is a radio
network identifier based on IEEE 802.11. Each wireless LAN has a configurable SSID or
ESSID (Extended Service Set Identifier) to uniquely identify the wireless network. Hence
it represents the network’s name.
The radio automatically detects all found networks, but also offers the option to enter an
SSID manually.
UPnP
This abbreviation stands for Universal Plug and Play and is based on a number
of standardised network protocols. It is used for the manufacturer-independent control
of devices (stereo system, printer, router, house systems) via an IP-based network. The
radio is a UPnP device that can receive data by means of the appropriate software.
WEP encryption
(Wired-Equivalent-Privacy) describes an encryption standard
for WIFIs. Of course, DABMAN WEP can also receive and interpret WEP-encrypted
data.
WPA encryption
Like WEP, WPA is a standard for encryption and
authentication. WPA was developed to address the basic weaknesses of WEP encryp-
tion. WPA can therefore be regarded as the safe successor to WEP.
WPS
WiFi Protected Setup is a standard for a simple and secure way of connecting in a
wireless network.
WiFi
Certificate for WIFI products that comply with IEEE802.11 standards and are compat-
ible with
other products. The radio also meets the technical standards of the WIFI
consortium.
WIFI
Also known as Wireless LAN or Wireless Local Area Network, it is a wireless local area
network used to transmit data.
