Appendix F. Deploying DSA-3600 Using DWL-2100AP
Wireless Features of DWL-2100AP
Wireless security can be addressed using the
DWL-2100AP
access point with
WPA
(Wi-Fi Protected Access)
and
802.1X authentication
to provide a higher level of security for data communication among wireless clients.
The
DWL-2100AP
is fully compatible with industry standards such as
WEP
, and can support
Multiple SSIDs
,
each of which can be mapped to a specific
Service Zone
(see Section 4.1.6 Service Zone) defined in the
DSA-3600
. Using the
Service Zone
based architecture, administrators can assign wireless security settings to
different
SSIDs
according to the
Service Zone
profiles.
The
DWL-2100AP
can be deployed in the
Service Zones
and centrally managed via the
DSA-3600
. The
Service Zone
and
Centralized AP Management
provide an ideal solution using the
DSA-3600
together with
DWL-2100AP
for quick creation and extension of wireless local area network (WLAN) in offices and other
workplaces, including hotspots.
Best Practice for Wireless Settings of DWL-2100AP
To use multiple
SSIDs
in
DWL-2100AP
, creation and configuration of different
Service Zones
will be needed.
¾
Two Types of SSIDs:
The
DWL-2100AP
has two types of
SSIDs
:
I.
Primary
(Only one for each
DWL-2100AP
) – Support every mode (
Open System
,
Shared Key
,
Open
System/Shared Key
,
WPA-EAP
,
WPA2-EAP
,
WPA-Auto-EAP
,
WPA-PSK
,
WPA2-PSK
, and
WPA-Auto-PSK
) for security.
II. Guest
(Up to 7 for each
DWL-2100AP
) – Does not support "
Open System/Shared Key
“ mode for security
Caution: If an existing SSID is already using Guest type, the wireless security of a Service Zone which is
associated with this SSID cannot be set in the Open System or Shared Key mode in DSA-3600.
