Wireless Security Configuration

silex products support various methods of authentication and encryption to ensure compatibility with wireless security depoyments. This document describes how to configure wireless security on silex print servers and device servers.

silex offers a variety of ways to configure the security parameters, including the ExtendView utility for Windows systems, a built-in web browser interface, and a command line console (described at the end of this document).

ExtendView

Note: You must be using ExtendView version 2.4 or later in order to configure wireless security settings. Install the ExtendView utility (found on the installation CD or at www.silexamerica.com). Select the product you want to configure from the list, click Server, and then Configuration and follow these steps for configuration:

1.Click on the Wireless tab.

2.Select Infrastructure for the Wireless mode and type in the correct SSID.

3.Click Configure Wireless Security.

Web Browser Interface

Open any web browser from your PC (eg: Internet Explorer or Firefox) and type the IP Address of the print server for the Address. Click Login from the main menu in the left frame, and type in the password (default is ACCESS) and follow these steps for configuration:

1.Click on Wireless from the main menu in the left frame.

2.Select Infrastructure for the Wireless mode and type in the correct SSID.

3.Click Submit.

4.On the Configure Wireless screen, click on Configure Network Security.

Web Browser Interface and ExtendView Security Configuration

You should now be able to enter the security settings whether you are in ExtendView or the web browser interface. See below for detail on each field in the form. Help is also available within the ExtendView utility or the web browser. If you are using ExtendView, click OK when you are done for the settings to take effect. If you are using the web browser interface, click submit when you are done, and click the link in the lower right frame to reset it and have the settings take effect.

Encryption Mode

Select the desired encryption mode for the wireless link:

•64 and 128 bit WEP are for basic security compatibility

•Dynamic WEP is displayed if an EAP (802.1x) method which automatically sets keys is selected as the authentication type.
