PEM (Base-64) encoded PKCS#7: This Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM) format uses 64 ASCII
characters to convert a binary PKCS#7 certificate into a printable form.
CINR
Carrier to Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (CINR) measures the effectiveness of a wireless signal and
plays an important role in allowing the BM2022 to decode signal burst. If a burst has a high signal
strength and a high interference-plus-noise ratio, it can use Digital Signal Processing (DSP) to
decode it; if the signal strength is lower, it can switch to an alternate burst profile.
RSSI
Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) measures the relative strength of a given wireless signal.
This is important in determining if a signal is below the Clear-To-Send (CTS) threshold. If it is below
the arbitrarily specified threshold, then BM2022 is free to transmit any data packets.
EAP Authentication
EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is an authentication protocol that runs on top of the IEEE
802.1x transport mechanism in order to support multiple types of user authentication. By using EAP
to interact with an EAP-compatible RADIUS server, an access point helps a wireless station and a
RADIUS server perform authentication.
The BM2022 supports EAP-TLS and EAP-TTLS (at the time of writing, TTLS is not available in
Windows Vista). For EAP-TLS authentication type, you must first have a wired connection to the
network and obtain the certificate(s) from a certificate authority (CA). Certificates (also called
digital IDs) can be used to authenticate users and a CA issues certificates and guarantees the
identity of each certificate owner.
6.2 Connection Settings
This screen allows you to configure how the BM2022 connects to the base stations on the WiMAX
network.
