300 Mbps In-Wall Access Point
User Guide
Parameter
Description
using WEP. In this case, ports are enabled for user authentication when valid clients
connect to the wireless network corresponding to the selected SSID, and disabled when
invalid users connect to the wireless network.
Default Key
It specifies the WEP key for the Open or Shared encryption type.
For example, if
Default Key
is set to
Security Key 2
, a wireless client can connect to
the wireless network corresponding to the selected SSID only with the password
specified by
Security Key 2
.
ASCII
It indicates that a key selected for the Open or Shared authentication type contains
hexadecimal characters.
5 or 13 ASCII characters are allowed in the key.
Hex
It indicates that a key selected for the Open or Shared authentication type contains
hexadecimal characters.
10 or 26 hexadecimal characters (range: 0-9, a-f, and A-F) are allowed in the key.
RADIUS Server IP
These parameters are dedicated to the 802.1x authentication type.
It specifies the IP address/port number/shared key of the RADIUS server for
authentication.
RADIUS Port
RADIUS Password
WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, and Mixed WPA/WPA2-PSK
Parameter description
Parameter
Description
Security Mode
It indicates the personal or pre-shared key security mode, including WPA-PSK,
WPA2-PSK, and Mixed WPA/WPA2-PSK.
WPA-PSK
: It indicates that the wireless network corresponding to the selected SSID is
encrypted using WPA-PSK.
WPA2-PSK
: It indicates that the wireless network corresponding to the selected SSID is
encrypted using WPA2-PSK.
Mixed WPA/WPA2-PSK
: It indicates that wireless clients can connect to the wireless
network corresponding to the selected SSID using either WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK.
Cipher Type
It specifies the encryption algorithm corresponding to the selected security mode. If
Security Mode
is set to
WPA-PSK
, this parameter has the
AES
and
TKIP
values. If
Security
Mode
is set to
WPA2-PSK
or
Mixed WPA/WPA2-PSK
, this parameter has
the
AES
,
TKIP
, and
TKIP&AES
values.
AES
: It indicates the Advanced Encryption Standard.
TKIP
: It indicates the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol. If
TKIP
is used, the maximum
wireless throughput of the AP is limited to 54 Mbps.
TKIP&AES
: It indicates that both TKIP and AES encryption algorithms are supported.
Wireless clients can connect to the wireless network corresponding to the selected SSID
using TKIP or AES.
