3.6.8 Security against unauthorized configuration
On this page you can install a password, the Write Community String
(WCS). When you set a WCS, you can only make changes to the
Access Point if you supply the correct WCS.
You can also lock the Access Point; when the Access Point is locked, no
one can change its configuration. You need to press a button on the
Access Point itself to unlock it. This increases security: only people who
can physically access the Access Point, will be able to change its
configuration.
