The Identification option, shown above for a Windows 95/98/ME
computer, configures the name, workgroup designation, and descrip-
tion that the computer will use for the selected profile. Windows 2000
Professional users can also configure the computer’s Domain or
workgroup affiliation within this screen.

The Cordless option, shown below, configures the cordless network-
ing parameters. Select either the Station Settings or Master Settings
tab to view additional advanced settings. For more information on
these advanced cordless parameters, including Station Type and
Protocol Type, refer to Appendix A.
Note:
The Domain and Roaming parameters are grayed out in the
Symphony Profile. Symphony products do not support these
RangeLAN2/OpenAir parameters.
In the example below, a Symphony Conductor computer is using the
word “peer” as the Security Code and it is configured as a Master
device. The user configured this Security Code using the Composer
Installation Wizard.
Proxim’s RangeLAN2 and Harmony OpenAir Cards use a parameter
called “Security ID,” which is similar to a Symphony Card’s Security
Code, except the Security ID is stored on the RangeLAN2/OpenAir
Card itself and cannot be read or retrieved, only overwritten.
RangeLAN2/OpenAir users who move a laptop between a
RangeLAN2/OpenAir network and a Symphony network should
configure the Original Profile to use the Security Code (or Security ID)
that resides within the card rather than a configured Security Code to
communicate with a RangeLAN2/OpenAir network.
