1.1 Overview
This chapter introduces the main applications and features of the NWA. It also
introduces the ways you can manage the NWA.
Your NWA extends the range of your existing wired network without additional
wiring, providing easy network access to mobile users.
It is highly versatile, featuring dual wireless modules and supporting up to eight
Basic Service Set Identifiers (BSSID) simultaneously. The Quality of Service (QoS)
features allow you to prioritize time-sensitive or highly important applications
such as VoIP.
Multiple security profiles allow you to easily assign different types of security to
groups of users. The NWA controls network access with MAC address filtering,
rogue AP detection, layer 2 isolation and an internal authentication server. It also
provides a high level of network traffic security, supporting IEEE 802.1x, Wi-Fi
Protected Access (WPA), WPA2 and WEP data encryption.
Your NWA is easy to install, configure and use. The embedded Web-based
configurator enables simple, straightforward management and maintenance.
See the Quick Start Guide for instructions on how to make hardware connections.
