Setup Pages

Open Settings

Open security does not utilize any encryption methodology, but requires an SSID (alpha-numeric) entry. This entry must match the Network Name (SSID) entry of the target WAP so the panel knows what device it is using to communicate with the network.

Open Settings

SSID (Service Set Identifier):	Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target
	WAP.
	The SSID is a unique name used by the WAP, and is assigned to all panels
	on that network. An SSID is required by the WAP before the panel is
	permitted to join the network.
	•	The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
	•	Make sure this setting is the same for all points in your wireless network.
	• NXA-WAP200Gs use AMX as their default SSID.
	•	If this field is left blank, the panel will attempt to connect to the first
		available WAP.
Save/Cancel:	•	Save - store the new security information, apply changes, and return to
		the previous page.
	•	Cancel - discard changes and return to the previous page.

Refer to the Configuring a Wireless Network Access section on page 14 for further details on these security options.

Refer to the Using the Site Survey tool section on page 18.

WEP Settings

WEP security requires that both a target WAP be identified and an encryption method be implemented prior to establishing communication. In addition to providing both Open and Shared Authentication capabilities, this page also supports Hexadecimal and ASCII keys.

WEP Settings

SSID (Service Set Identifier):	Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target
	WAP.
	The SSID is a unique name used by the WAP, and is assigned to all panels
	on that network. An SSID is required by the WAP before the panel is
	permitted to join the network.
	•	The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
	•	Make sure this setting is the same for all points in your wireless network.
	• NXA-WAP200Gs use AMX as their default SSID.
	•	If this field is left blank, the panel will attempt to connect to the first
		available WAP.
WEP 64 / WEP 128:	Cycles through the available encryption options: 64 or 128 Bit Key Size.
	“WEP” (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is an 802.11 security protocol designed to
	provide wireless security equivalent to wired networks.
	•	WEP64 enables WEP encryption using a 64 Bit Key Size. All packets
		are transmitted with their contents encrypted using the Default WEP
		Key.
	•	WEP128 enables WEP encryption using a 128 Bit Key Size. All packets
		are transmitted with their contents encrypted using the Default WEP
		Key.
	•	If the key is not the correct size, the system will resize it to match the
		number of bits required for the WEP encryption mode selected.
