4.4.3 Wireless Setting, and 802.1X setting

Wireless settings allow you to set the wireless configuration items.

1. Network ID (SSID): The Network ID is used for identifying the Wireless LAN (WLAN).

Client stations can roam freely between this product and other Access Points that have the

same Network ID. (The factory setting is “default”)

2. Channel: The radio channel number. The permissible channels depend on the Regulatory

Domain. The factory setting is as follows: channel 6 for North America; channel 7 for

European (ETSI); channel 7 for Japan.

3. WEP Security: Select the data privacy algorithm you want. Enabling the security can

protect your data while it is transferred from one station to another. The standardized IEEE

802.11 WEP (128 or 64-bit) is used here.

4. WEP Key 1, 2, 3 & 4: When you enable the 128 or 64 bit WEP key security, please select

one WEP key to be used and input 26 or 10 hexadecimal (0, 1, 2…8, 9, A, B…F) digits.

5. Pass-phrase Generator: Since hexadecimal characters are not easily remembered, this

device offers a conversion utility to convert a simple word or phrase into hex.

6. 802.1X Setting: This Check Box is used to switch on and off the function of the 802.1X.

When the 802.1X function is enabled, the Wireless user must authenticate to this router

first to use the Network service.

RADIUS Server: IP address or the 802.1X server’s domain-name.

RADIUS Shared Key: Key value shared by the RADIUS server and this router. This key value

needs to be consistent with the key value in the RADIUS server.
