Configuring The Wireless Network - Juniper NetScreen-5GT Wireless User Manual

Chapter 2 Configuring the Device
By default, the wireless1 interface is bound to the Wzone1 zone and does not have an IP
address assigned to it. If you want to use the wireless1 interface, then you must configure
an IP address for it. Refer to the NetScreen-5GT Wireless New Features Guide for more
information.
The NetScreen device allows any type of traffic to the Internet that originates from
devices in your Trust zone, but does not allow any traffic that originates in the Internet to
reach your network. You can configure additional restrictions; refer to
Additional Policies" on page

Configuring the Wireless Network

Wireless networks consist of names referred to as Service Set Identifiers (SSIDs).
Specifying an SSID allows you to have multiple wireless networks residing in the same
location without interfering with each other. You can have a maximum of eight SSIDs
configured on each device. Once the SSID name is set, you can configure SSID attributes.
To set the SSID name netscreen open, allow wireless network connectivity, and activate
the wireless2 interface:
WebUI
Wireless > SSID > New: Enter the following, and then click OK:
SSID: "netscreen open"
Wireless Interface Binding: wireless2 (select)
Activate Changes > click the Activate Changes button
CLI
set ssid name "netscreen open"
set ssid "netscreen open" authentication open encryption
none
set ssid "netscreen open" interface wireless2
exec wlan reactivate
Once you have set an SSID to the wireless2 interface, you can access the device using the
default wireless2 interface IP address in the steps provided with
on page 13 to configure the device. Refer to the NetScreen-5GT Wireless New Features
Guide for configuration examples, SSID attributes, and CLI commands relating to
wireless security configurations.
Note: You cannot use the wireless2 interface to access the Initial Configuration Wizard
(ICW). The ICW can only be accessed with the physical Trust interface connection.
