INITIAL CONFIGURATION The OUTDOOR AP/CPE, outdoor 2.4GHz AP/CPE offers a user-friendly web-based management interface for the configuration of all the unit’s features. Any PC directly attached to the unit can access the management interface using a web browser, such as Internet Explorer (version 6.0 or above). CONNECTING TO THE LOGIN PAGE It is recommended to make initial configuration changes by connecting a PC directly to the OUTDOOR AP/CPE’s LAN port. The OUTDOOR AP/CPE has a default IP address of 192.
EASY SETUP The Easy Setup is designed to help you to configure the basic settings required to get the OUTDOOR AP/CPE up and running. There are only a few basic steps you need to set up the OUTDOOR AP/CPE to get the connection. Click on Easy Setup to bring up the wizard OPERATION MODE – AP ROUTER In AP Router mode, your N5C unit is turned to a wireless router and wireless interface will become the LAN side; if your PC is connected to the PoE port, the management IP will change to the LAN IP (192.168.2.1).

Once the mode is selected, all WAN related functions will be disabled.
network. FIREWALL CONFIGURATION MAC/IP/PORT FILTERING MAC/IP/Port filtering restricts connection parameters to limit the risk of intrusion and defends against a wide array of common hacker attacks. MAC/IP/Port filtering allows the unit to permit, deny or proxy traffic through its MAC addresses, IP addresses and ports. The OUTDOOR AP/CPE allows you define a sequential list of permit or deny filtering rules. This device tests ingress packets against the filter rules one by one.
◆Comment — Enter a useful comment to help identify the filtering rules. ◆Current Filtering rules — The Current Filter Table displays the configured IP addresses and ports that are permitted or denied access to and from. No. — The table entry number. MAC Address — Displays a MAC address to filter. Destination IP Address (DIP) — Displays the destination IP address. Source IP Address (SIP) — Displays the source IP address. Protocol — Displays the protocol type.
external access. ◆Private Port — The protocol port number on the local server. ◆Public Port — The protocol port number on the router’s WAN interface. ◆Protocol — Specifies the protocol to forward, either TCP, UDP, or TCP&UDP. ◆Comment — Enter a useful comment to help identify the port forwarding service on the network. ◆Current Virtual Servers in System — The Current Port Forwarding Table displays the entries that are allowed to forward packets through the OUTDOOR AP/CPE’s firewall. No.
FIREWALL Firewall functions which will help to protect your network and computer. You can utilized firmware functions to protect your network from hackers and malicious intruders. ◆Remote Management (via WAN) — allow or deny to manage the router from anywhere on the Internet. ◆Remote Management Port — The port that you will use to address the management from the Internet. For example, if you specify port 2020, then to access the OUTDOOR AP/CPE from Internet, you would use a URL of the form: http://xxx.xxx.
CONTENT FILTERING The OUTDOOR AP/CPE provides a variety of options for blocking Internet access based on content, URL and host name. ◆Web URL Filter Settings — By filtering inbound Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) the risk of compromising the network can be reduced. URLs are commonly used to point to websites. By specifying a URL or a keyword contained in a URL traffic from that site may be blocked. ◆Current URL Filters — Displays current URL filter. ◆Add a URL Filter — Adds a URL filter to the settings.
NETWORK SETTINGS WAN In this section, there are several connection types to choose from; Static IP, DHCP, PPPoE, PPTP and L2TP. If you are unsure of your connection method, please contact your Internet Service Provider.

A DNS maps numerical IP addresses to domain names and can be used to identify network hosts by familiar names instead of the IP addresses.
◆Subnet Mask — The subnet mask of OUTDOOR AP/CPE on the local area network ◆DHCP Server — The DHCP Server is to assign private IP address to the OUTDOOR AP/CPE in your local area network(LAN). The default LAN IP address is 192.168.2.1, changing IP address will also change the DHCP server’s IP subnet. ADVANCED ROUTING In this section, allow to configure routing feature in the OUTDOOR AP/CPE. ◆Destination — The IP address of packets that can be routed. ◆Type — Defines the type of destination.
WIRELESS SETTINGS BASIC ◆Wireless On/Off — Enables or Disable the radio. (Default: Turn On) ◆Wireless Mode — There are 4 wireless mode, those are Access Point, WDS Access Point, WDS Repeater and WDS Client Note. If WEP authentication is selected for WDS communication, you will then only have one set of encryption for the entire channel. ◆Network Name (SSID) — The name of the wireless network service provided by the OUTDOOR AP/CPE.
SECURITY WIRED EQUIVALENT PRIVACY (WEP) WEP provides a basic level of security, preventing unauthorized access to the network, and encrypting data transmitted between wireless clients and an access point. WEP uses static shared keys (fixed-length hexadecimal or alphanumeric strings) that are manually distributed to all clients that want to use the network. When you select to use WEP, be sure to define at least one static WEP key for user authentication or data encryption.
◆WEP Keys — Sets WEP key values. The user must first select ASCII or hexadecimal keys. Each WEP key has an index number. Enter key values that match the key type and length settings. Enter 5 alphanumeric characters or 10 hexadecimal digits for 64-bit keys, or enter 13 alphanumeric characters or 26 hexadecimal digits for 128-bit keys. (Default: Hex, no preset value) Note. If WEP authentication is selected for WDS communication, you will then only have one set of encryption for the entire channel.
WPA2-compliant hardware. ■ Auto — Uses either TKIP or AES keys for encryption. WPA and WPA2 mixed modes allow both WPA and WPA2 clients to associate to a common SSID. In mixed mode, the unicast encryption type (TKIP or AES) is negotiated for each client. ◆Key Renewal Interval — Sets the time period for automatically changing data encryption keys and redistributing them to all connected clients. RADIUS Server — Configures RADIUS server settings. ◆IP Address — Specifies the IP address of the RADIUS server.
◆WPA- Auto-PSK — Clients using WPA or WPA2 with a Preshared Key are accepted for authentication. ◆WPA Algorithms — Selects the data encryption type to use. (Default is determined by the Security Mode selected.) ■ TKIP — Uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) keys for encryption. WPA specifies TKIP as the data encryption method to replace WEP. TKIP avoids the problems of WEP static keys by dynamically changing data encryption keys. ■ AES — Uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) keys for encryption.
authentication. IEEE 802.1X can also be enabled on its own as a security mode for user authentication. When 802.1X is used, a RADIUS server must be configured and be available on the connected wired network. RADIUS Server — Configures RADIUS server settings. ◆IP Address — Specifies the IP address of the RADIUS server. ◆Port — The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port number used by the RADIUS server for authentication messages.
◆AP PIN — Displays the PIN Code for the Wireless Router. ◆WPS Name — WPS name for connecting to the device. ◆Security Mode — Selects between methods of broadcasting the WPS beacon to network clients wanting to join the network: WPA Algorithms — Selects the data encryption type to use. (Default is determined by the Security Mode selected.) ◆TKIP — Uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) keys for encryption. WPA specifies TKIP as the data encryption method to replace WEP.
