PC and Server Configuration
4.1 Overview
All Wireless Stations need to have settings which match the Wireless Access Point.
These settings depend on the mode in which the WDAP-2000PE is being used.
•
If using WEP or WPA-PSK, it is only necessary to ensure that each Wireless
station's settings match those of the WDAP-2000PE, as described below.
•
For WPA and 802.1x modes, configuration is much more complex. The Radius
Server must be configured correctly, and setup of each Wireless station is also
more complex.
4.2 Using WEP
For each of the following items, each Wireless Station must have the same settings as
the WDAP-2000PE.
Mode
SSID (ESSID)

4.3 Using WPA-PSK
For each of the following items, each Wireless Station must have the same settings as
the WDAP-2000PE.
Mode
SSID (ESSID)
Wireless
S
On each PC, the mode must be set to Infrastructure.
This must match the value used on the WDAP-2000PE.
The default value is default
Note: The SSID is case sensitive.
•
Each Wireless station must be set to use WEP data encryp-
tion.
•
The Key size (64 bit, 128 bit, 152 bit) must be set to match the
WDAP-2000PE.
•
The keys values on the PC must match the key values on the
WDAP-2000PE.
Note:
On some systems, the key sizes may be shown as 40bit, 104bit,
and 128bit instead of 64 bit, 128 bit and 152bit. This difference
arises because the key input by the user is 24 bits less than the
key size used for encryption.
On each PC, the mode must be set to Infrastructure.
This must match the value used on the WDAP-2000PE.
The default value is default
Note: The SSID is case sensitive.
On each client, Wireless security must be set to WPA-PSK.
