Terminology Used in this Guide
BSSID, MAC ID
The BSSID (Basic Service Set ID) is a factory-set ID unique to each wireless
product. It is identical to the MAC ID (Media Access Control ID). It allows each
wireless product to be identified on the wireless network.
ESSID
An Extended Service Set ID (often referred to as Service Set ID, or SSID) identifies
the wireless LAN domain that an AP is in. A domain is generally composed of
wireless APs you are most likely to communicate with. You can type an existing
domain name or create a new one that contains up to 32 characters.
Regulatory Domain
11-Mbps wireless products use the license-free ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and
Medical) band to communicate through radio waves. Different countries offer
different radio frequencies to be used as the ISM band. There are four frequency
bands defined by IEEE 802.11: Japan (2.471 to 2.497 GHz), USA, Extended Japan,
Canada, and Europe (2.4 to 2.4835 GHz), Spain (2.445 to 2.475 GHz), and France
(2.4465 to 2.4835 GHz). To use 11-Mbps wireless products in a country not listed
above, check with your government’s regulating body to find the correct frequency
band to use. All wireless products are supplied preset to the country of sale’s
frequency band.
WEP
WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy. It is an encryption scheme that provides
secure wireless data communications. WEP uses a 40-bit or 128-bit key to encrypt
data. In order to decode the data transmission, all wireless clients on the network
must use identical keys.
