Access Point Configure Automatically
Illustration 11: Access Point Configure Automatically
Broadcast SSID
: With this option enabled, the configured SSID will be broadcast such that
it can be detected by an SSID scan. Otherwise, the configured SSID will not be broadcast
such that it cannot be detected by an SSID scan. In order to connect with the access point,
the SSID needs to be known by the client.
Client Isolation:
Prevent wireless clients connected to the AP from communicating with
each other.
Keep AP:
With this option enabled, the Wi-Fi Access Point will always on even if there is no
connection to the mesh network.
AP Transmit Power Adjustment:
An option to retain a lower power setting for indoor
home devices.
Available options are b8dBm and –15dBm.
With the Access Point Configuration set to
Configure Automatically
, the
SSID
,
Authentication
, and
Encryption Key
values of the Integrated Wi-Fi Access Point will be
configured to be the same as in the
Wireless Settings
section.
This configuration mode is effectively equivalent to directly connecting 802.1b/g devices on
the customers’ premises with Citywide Wi-Fi.
Important Note:
In the
Wireless Settings
section, if
Authentication
is set to either
802.1x with
dynamic WEP key
or
WPA/WPA2-Enterprise
, then the
Configure Automatically
option of the Access Point Configuration becomes unavailable, because the Integrated
Wi-Fi Access Point functionality currently does not support authentication via the
802.1x with dynamic WEP key and WPA/WPA2-Enterprise methods.
