Command

Description

SET NW

Sets WPA trace level.

 

WPATRACE

This command is for internal diagnostic purposes only.

 

 

The default value is 0 or disabled.

 

Format:

 

 

SET NW WPATRACE nn

 

 

NOTE: For FIPS 140-2 approved operation, this parameter must be 0

SH NW DISCONN

Displays the current value of the network disconnection timer

 

Sample output:

 

 

Disconnect Timer: 5

SET NW

Sets the period of the network link disconnection watchdog timer. In wireless

DISCONN

infrastructure mode, this timer monitors the wireless link, and if the unit is not

 

connected to an AP for the time specified, the unit is reset.

 

SET NW DISCONN nn

watchdog timer is disabled

 

N = 0

 

1-255

watchdog timer period in minutes

 

The factory default value is 5 minutes.

 

This timer also controls a receive activity monitor when the wireless network link is

 

connected. If no packets are received during the time specified, and the link remains

 

up, the unit will reset at the end of the time period.

 

 

SET NW RESET

This command stops, and then resets the wireless network interface. This will

 

effectively disassociate the unit from an access point if it is connected. If the unit is

 

in wireless infrastructure mode, the unit will then scan and attempt to reconnect to a

 

suitable access point, if one is available.

 

Format:

 

 

SET NW RESET

 

ZEROKEYS

Zeroizes the module private key and WPA PSK key, as well as any temporary key

 

values held in RAM. The unit will then automatically perform a soft reset. Note that

 

if any wireless encryption is enabled, it will be impossible to connect to an access

 

point until the necessary key information has been re-configured.
