WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK
When you select a wireless security
Type
, as described at the end of the Section 4.1.1.2
above, the configuration options for that mode appear. (See the figure in Section
4.1.1.2.1.)
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) improves upon the security features of WEP (Wired
Equivalent Privacy). WPA technology can work with existing Wi-Fi products that are
enabled with WEP. WPA improves data encryption using the Temporal Key Integrity
Protocol (TKIP), which scrambles the encryption keys using a hashing algorithm and adds
integrity checking to ensure that keys haven’t been tampered with.
4.1.1.3.
VLAN Management
If you enable VLAN tagging in the WAP-O3G Wireless section, you must choose a VLAN
Management ID for the WAP-O3G to access the administrative functions of your WAP-
O3G. This is the VLAN you designated for the WAP ID address. For example, let say the
subnet range for VLAN 3 is 192.168.3.X and VLAN3 is selected as the VLAN ID for
management. The IP address for the WAP-O3G must be 192.168.3.X, where X is any
value in range.
VLAN Id for Management:
To turn on VLAN Management, select the
VLAN Id
button.
Note: 802.1q tagging must be enabled.
In the
VLAN Id
text box, type the ID number of the VLAN you want to allow to
access the administrative functions of the WAP-O3G.
Note: The IP address
range for the VLAN must be the same as the WAP-O3G.
