Remember not to include the address of the Wireless Barricade in the
client address pool. Also remember to configure your client PCs for
dynamic IP address allocation.
Wireless Configuration
To configure the Wireless Barricade as a wireless access point for wireless
clients (either stationary or roaming), all you need to do is define the radio
channel, the Service Set identifier (SSID), and encryption options.
Channel and SSID
You must specify a common radio channel and SSID (Service Set ID) to
be used by the Wireless Barricade and all of your wireless clients. Be sure
you configure all of your clients to the same values.
ESSID: The Service Set ID. This should be set to the same value as other
wireless devices in your network.
Note: The SSID is case sensitive and can consist of up to 32
alphanumeric characters.
