NETGEAR ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point WG302 Reference Manual
• Use of Passphrases and keys are explained below:
– Passphrase. You can use the Passphrase to generate the WEP keys automatically by
entering a passphrase and clicking the Generate Keys button. You can also enter the keys
directly. These keys must match the other wireless stations.
– Key 1, Key 2, Key 3, Key 4. If using WEP, one key is selected to be used as the default
key. Data transmissions are always encrypted using the default key. The other keys can
only be used to decrypt received data.
– WPA Passphrase (Network Key). If using WPA-PSK, a passphrase must be entered
here. All wireless stations must then use the same passphrase (network key). The network
key must be from 8 to 63 characters in length.
• Wireless Client Security Separation. If enabled, the associated wireless clients will not be
able to communicate with each other. This feature is used for hotspots and other public access
situations. The default is Disabled.
• Security Profile VLAN ID. If the hubs/switches on your LAN support the VLAN (802.1Q)
standard and this feature has been enabled, you need to enter the VLAN ID for each profile.
Profile IDs must be in the range of 1 through 4094. These IDs must match the IDs used by
other network devices.
