Security
Displays when WLAN is enabled. As an additional security measure, enable WEP on
the WiPort. The current value is displayed in parentheses. By default, WEP is
disabled on WiPort.
Security 0=none, 1=WEP (0) ? _
Data Rate
Displays when WLAN is enabled. WiPort permits the control of the transmission rate.
The default is a data rate up to 11Mbps. The current value is displayed in
parentheses.
Data rate, Only : 0=1, 1=2, 2=5.5, 3=11 Mbps or
Up to: 4=2, 5=5.5, 6=11 Mbps (6) ?
Power Management
Displays when WLAN is enabled. Power management reduces the overall power
consumption of the WiPort unit. Enabling power management increases the
response time. The current value is displayed in parentheses.
Enable power management (N) ? _
Expert Settings
Note:
Change these settings via Telnet or serial connections only.
Caution:
Only an expert should change these parameters. These changes
hold serious consequences.
TCP Keepalive Time
TCP Keepalive time defines how many seconds the unit waits during a silent
connection before checking whether the currently connected network device is still on
the network. If the unit does not receive a response, it drops that connection.
TCP Keepalive time in s (1s – 65s; 0s=disable): (45)? _
ARP Cache Timeout
When the unit communicates with another device on the network, it adds an entry
into its ARP table. ARP Cache timeout defines the number of seconds (1-600) the
unit waits before timing out this table.
ARP Cache timeout in s (1s – 65s; 0s=disable): (600)? _
High CPU Performance mode
Increase the CPU performance and utilize the higher baud rates on the serial
interface (i.e. 460Kbps and 920Kbps). Increasing CPU performance requires more
power and lowers the unit’s operating temperature. The standard CPU performance
mode supports up to 230400 baud.
Note:
If baud rates of 460Kbps or 920Kbps are set and the high performance
mode disabled, the operation of the serial channel would be out of the
specified error tolerance thereby leading to inconsistent speed settings on
the two ends of the serial channel.
