In the above security modes, a back-end RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) server is needed if IEEE 802.1x functionality is enabled. See Section 2.13.2 for more information about IEEE 802.1x and RADIUS.

According to the IEEE 802.11 standard, WEP can be used for authentication and data encryption. Normally, Shared Key authentication is used if WEP data encryption is enabled. In rare cases, Open System authentication may be used when WEP data encryption is enabled. The Authentication algo- rithm setting is provided for better compatibility with wireless client computers with various WLAN network adapters. There are three options available, including Open System, Shared Key, and Auto.

When WEP is enabled by a security mode, the Key length can be specified to be 64 Bits or 128 Bits. The Selected key setting specifies the key to be used as a send-keyfor encrypting traffic from the lo- cal device side to the remote device side. All 4 WEP keys are used as receive-keysto decrypt traffic from the remote device side to the local device side.

NOTE:

Each field of a WEP key when the security mode is to “00012E3ADF”.

setting is a hex-decimalnumber from 0-9, A-F. For example, Static WEP and the key length is 64 Bits, you could set Key 1

2.12.2.2. MAC-Address-Based Access Control

Fig. 77. MAC-address-based access control settings.

With MAC-Address-Based Access Control, you can specify the wireless clients (STAs or Bridge Slaves) that are permitted or not permitted to associate with the IWE3200-H. When the table type is set to inclusive, entries in the table are permitted to associate with the IWE3200-H. When the table type is set to exclusive, entries in the table are not permitted to associate with the IWE3200-H.

To deny wireless clients’ access to the wireless network:

1.Select Enabled from the Functionality drop-down list.

2.Set the Access control type to exclusive.

3.Specify the MAC address of a wireless client to be denied access, and then click Add.

4.Repeat Step 3 for each other wireless client.

To grant wireless clients’ access to the wireless network:

1.Select Enabled from the Functionality drop-down list.

2.Set the Access control type to inclusive.
