40 EasyLAN Wireless Interface Kit Installation Instructions
Chapter 5 — Setup in IPL
SSID (Network Name)e SSID (Service Set Identifier) is 0-32 characters used to differentiate
wireless LANs that overlap in frequency and physical coverage area.
An empty SSID string signifies that the printer will associate with any
network. By default SSID is “INTERMEC”.
Non-alphanumeric octets are entered by “%HH” (a percent sign and two
hexadecimal digits (0-9, a-f, A-F) representing the value of the character).
Example: “12%2034” is equivalent to “12 34”. e percent sign is
represented by “%25’. e SSID is possible to change by allowed users
on the printer’s web page.
<STX><SI>ws,SSID,qwerty<ETX>
Sets SSID to “qwerty”.
<STX><SI>wt,SSID<ETX>
Transmits current SSID.
e SSID is shown on the test label and on the printer’s home page.
WEPNote: WEP is only supported by IPL v2.10 or later.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) uses a secret (40 or 104 bits long)
together with a 24-bit “IV” (Initialization Vector) to form a key used to
encrypt the data sent over radio.
e printer can have up to four WEP 64 and/or WEP 128 keys. ere
is a key selection setting to select which key that will be used when
transmitting. Its value will be 0-4 (0 signifying that WEP is disabled,
or that WEP keys will be generated via 802.1x or WPA; 1-4 selecting
one of the configured keys). It is possible to select an unconfigured key
(this disables WEP). By default, WEP is disabled, and no keys will be
configured.
WEP keys are entered either in a hexadecimal notation or in an
alphanumerical notation. A string starting with “0x” (a zero followed
by a lower-case x) followed by 10 or 26 characters is interpreted as a
WEP key in hex-notation; anything else is interpreted as a WEP key in
alphanumerical notation. If a key is set to the empty string it is said to
be unconfigured. If the wireless data is WEP encrypted, it is possible to
change the WEP keys on the printer’s home page.
