2.4.3 Set Operating Mode, IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Route IP, DNS Server IP of UOW2000 SERIES ► LAN Settings These are the settings of the LAN (Local Area Network) interface for the Access Point. The Access Point's local network (LAN) settings are configured based on the IP Address and Subnet Mask assigned in this section. The IP address is also used to access this Web-based management interface. This option is available in the “/BASIC/LAN/” page as shown in Figure 2-7.
The IP address of the AP on the local area network. Assign any unused IP address in the range of IP addresses available for the LAN. For example, 192.168.0.1. ► Subnet Mask The subnet mask of the local area network. ► Gateway The IP address of the router on the local area network. ► Local Domain Name This entry is optional. Enter a domain name for the local network. The AP's DHCP server will give this domain name to the computers on the wireless LAN. So, for example, if you enter mynetwork.
2.4.4 Set Wireless SSID for Wireless Interface ► Wireless Network Name (Also called the SSID) When you are browsing for available wireless networks, this is the name that will appear in the list (unless Visibility Status is set to Invisible, see below). This name is also referred to as the SSID. For security purposes, it is highly recommended to change from the pre-configured network name.
2.4.5 Set Wireless Encryption for Wireless Interface The UOW2000 Series supports 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption. For 64-bit WEP encryption, an encryption key is 10 hexadecimal characters (0-9 and A-F) or 5 ASCII characters.

Step 2 Set Wireless parameters on the AP11 to: Channel (1) and SSID (wireless) Step 3 Set the UOW2000 Series CB to function in the bridge mode (bridge IP address: 192.168.1.241).
Chapter 4. 4.1 4.1.1 All function on Device BASIC Wizard This wizard guides you through the following basic Access Point setup steps: Set your Password Select your Time Zone Configure your Wireless Connection WCN Wizard If your PC's operating system is Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) or later and you are using Windows Internet Explorer (IE) as your browser, you can use Windows Connect Now (WCN) technology to help configure the Access Point's wireless security settings.
Note that WCN only sets a few of the wireless options. You will still need to go to the Home -> Wireless page to set other wireless options such as Super G Mode and transmission rate.
4.1.2 LAN These are the settings of the LAN (Local Area Network) interface for the Access Point. The Access Point's local network (LAN) settings are configured based on the IP Address and Subnet Mask assigned in this section. The IP address is also used to access this Web-based management interface. Figure 4-2 Get LAN IP From Choose "DHCP (Dynamic)" if your router supports DHCP and you want the router to assign an IP address to the AP. In this case, you do not need to fill in the following fields.
IP Address The IP address of the AP on the local area network. Assign any unused IP address in the range of IP addresses available for the LAN. For example, 192.168.1.101. Subnet Mask The subnet mask of the local area network. Gateway The IP address of the router on the local area network. Local Domain Name This entry is optional. Enter a domain name for the local network. The AP's DHCP server will give this domain name to the computers on the wireless LAN. So, for example, if you enter mynetwork.
4.1.3 DHCP DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The DHCP section is where you configure the built-in DHCP Server to assign IP addresses to the computers and other devices on your local area network (LAN).
In most situations, the router provides DHCP services, and you can leave this option disabled. However, if for any reason the router does not provide DHCP services, enable this option. The AP's DHCP Server will then manage the IP addresses and other network configuration information for wireless clients associated with the AP. The computers (and other devices) connected to your LAN also need to have their TCP/IP configuration set to "DHCP" or "Obtain an IP address automatically".
manually configured. Suppose you have a web server computer that has a manually configured address of 192.168.1.100. Because this falls within the "managed range" be sure to create a reservation for this address and match it to the relevant computer (see Static DHCP Client below). DHCP Lease Time The amount of time that a computer may have an IP address before it is required to renew the lease. The lease functions just as a lease on an apartment would.
Reservations are helpful for server computers on the local network that are hosting applications such as Web and FTP. Servers on your network should either use a static IP address or use this option. MAC Address: To input the MAC address of your system, enter it in manually or connect to the Access Point's Web-Management interface from the system and click the Copy Your PC's MAC Address button. A MAC address is usually located on a sticker on the bottom of a network device.
deleted by clicking the Delete icon. When you click the Edit icon, the item is highlighted, and the "Edit DHCP Reservation" section is activated for editing.
4.1.4 WIRELESS The wireless section is used to configure the wireless settings for your Access Point. Please note that changes made on this section may also need to be duplicated on your Wireless Client. To protect your privacy, use the wireless security mode to configure the wireless security features. This device supports three wireless security modes including: WEP, WPA-Personal, and WPA-Enterprise. WEP is the original wireless encryption standard. WPA provides a higher level of security.
This option turns off and on the wireless connection feature of the Access Point. When you set this option, the following parameters are displayed. Wireless Network Name When you are browsing for available wireless networks, this is the name that will appear in the list (unless Visibility Status is set to Invisible, see below). This name is also referred to as the SSID. For security purposes, it is highly recommended to change from the pre-configured network name.
By default the fastest possible transmission rate will be selected. You have the option of selecting the speed if necessary. 802.11 Mode If all of the wireless devices you want to connect with this Access Point can connect in 802.11g mode, you can improve performance slightly by changing the mode to 802.11g only. If you have some devices that are 802.11b, leave the setting at Mixed. Super G™ Mode Super G without Turbo: Performance enhancing features such as Packet Bursting, FastFrames, and Compression.
Both of these options select some variant of Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) -- security standards published by the Wi-Fi Alliance. The WPA Mode further refines the variant that the Access Point should employ. WPA Mode: WPA is the older standard; select this option if the clients that will be used with the Access Point only support the older standard. WPA2 is the newer implementation of the stronger IEEE 802.11i security standard.
Authentication Timeout: Amount of time before a client will be required to re-authenticate. RADIUS Server IP Address: The IP address of the authentication server. RADIUS Server Port: The port number used to connect to the authentication server. RADIUS Server Shared Secret: A pass-phrase that must match with the authentication server. MAC Address Authentication: If this is selected, the user must connect from the same computer whenever logging into the wireless network.
4.2 4.2.1 ADVANCED MAC Address Filter The MAC address filter section can be used to filter network access by machines based on the unique MAC addresses of their network adapter(s). It is most useful to prevent unauthorized wireless devices from connecting to your network. A MAC address is a unique ID assigned by the manufacturer of the network adapter. Figure 4-5 Enable MAC Address Filter When this is enabled, computers are granted or denied network access depending on the mode of the filter.
Filter Settings Mode When "only allow listed machines" is selected, only computers with MAC addresses listed in the MAC Address List are granted network access. When "only deny listed machines" is selected, any computer with a MAC address listed in the MAC Address List is refused access to the network. Filter Wireless Clients When this is selected, the MAC address filters will be applied to wireless network clients.
4.2.2 Advance Wireless Figure 4-6 Fragmentation Threshold This setting should remain at its default value of 2346. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may result in poor performance. RTS Threshold This setting should remain at its default value of 2346. If you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications to the value are recommended. Beacon Period Beacons are packets sent by a wireless Access Point to synchronize wireless devices. Specify a Beacon Period value between 20 and 1000.
Access Point has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1. Valid settings are between 1 and 255. 802.11d Enable Enables 802.11d operation. 802.11d is a wireless specification for operation in additional regulatory domains. This supplement to the 802.
4.3 4.3.1 TOOLS Admin The Admin option is used to set a password for access to the Web-based management. By default there is no password configured. It is highly recommended that you create a password to keep your new Access Point secure.
Figure 4-7 Admin Password Enter a password for the user "admin", who will have full access to the Web-based management interface. User Password Enter a password for the user "user", who will have read-only access to the Web-based management interface. Access Point Name The name of the Access Point can be changed here. Admin Idle Timeout The amount of time before the administration session (either remote or local) is closed when there is no activity.
Note that WCN only saves a few of the wireless security settings. When you use WCN to propagate settings to other wireless devices, you may have to make additional settings manually on those devices. Note that, in Microsoft's current implementation of WCN, you cannot save the wireless settings if a profile of the same name already exists.
4.3.2 Time The Time Configuration option allows you to configure, update, and maintain the correct time on the Access Point's internal system clock. From this section you can set the time zone that you are in and set the Time Server. Daylight saving can also be configured to automatically adjust the time when needed.
Time Configuration Time Zone Select your local time zone from pull down menu. Daylight Saving Enable Check this option if your location observes daylight saving time. Daylight Saving Offset Select the time offset, if your location observes daylight saving time. DST Start and DST End Select the starting and ending times for the change to and from daylight saving time. For example, suppose for DST Start you select Month="Oct", Week="3rd", Day="Sun" and Time="2am".
4.3.3 System This section allows you to reboot the device, and restore the Access Point to the factory default settings. Restoring the unit to the factory default settings will erase all settings, including any rules that you've created. Figure 4-9 Reboot the Device This restarts the Access Point. Useful for restarting when you are not near the device.
4.3.4 Firmware The Firmware Upgrade section can be used to update to the latest firmware code to improve functionality and performance. Figure 4-10 To upgrade the firmware, follow these steps: 1. Click the Browse button to locate the upgrade file on your computer.
2. Once you have found the file to be used, click the Upload button below to start the firmware upgrade process. This can take a minute or more. 3. Wait for the Access Point to reboot. This can take another minute or more. 4. Confirm updated firmware revision on status page. Firmware Information Here are displayed the version numbers of the firmware currently installed in your Access Point and the most recent upgrade that is available.
4.4 4.4.1 Status Device Info All of your Internet and network connection details are displayed on the Device Info page. The firmware version is also displayed here. Note: Some browsers have limitations that make it impossible to update the WAN status display when the status changes. Some browsers require that you refresh the display to obtain updated status. Some browsers report an error condition when trying to obtain WAN status.
LAN Computers This area of the screen continually updates to show all DHCP enabled computers and devices connected to the LAN side of your Access Point. The detection "range" is limited to the address range as configured in DHCP Server. Computers that have an address outside of this range will not show. If the DHCP Client (i.e. a computer configured to "Automatically obtain an address") supplies a Host Name then that will also be shown.
4.4.2 Logs The Access Point automatically logs (records) events of possible interest in its internal memory. If there is not enough internal memory for all events, logs of older events are deleted, but logs of the latest events are retained. The Logs option allows you to view the Access Point logs. You can define what types of events you want to view and the level of events to view.
What to View Select the kinds of events that you want to view. • System View Levels Select the level of events that you want to view. • • • Critical Warning Informational Apply Log Settings Now Click this button after changing Log Options to make them effective and permanent. Refresh Clicking this button refreshes the display of log entries. There may be new events since the last time you accessed the log. Clear Clicking this button erases all log entries.
4.4.3 Statistics The Statistics page displays all of the LAN, WAN, and Wireless packet transmit and receive statistics. Figure 4-13 Sent The number of packets sent from the Access Point. Received The number of packets received by the Access Point. TX Packets Dropped The number of packets that were dropped while being sent, due to errors, collisions, or Access Point resource limitations.
The number of packets that were dropped while being received, due to errors, collisions, or Access Point resource limitations. Collisions The number of packets that were dropped due to Ethernet collisions (two or more devices attempting to use an Ethernet circuit at the same time). Errors The number of transmission failures that cause loss of a packet. A noisy radio-frequency environment can cause a high error rate on the wireless LAN.
