Quality of Service (QoS) refers to both a network’s ability to deliver data with minimum delay, and the networking methods used to control bandwidth. QoS allows the EMG1302-R10A to group and prioritize application traffic and fine-tune network performance.

  • Page 187 A hidden node occurs when two stations are within range of the same access point, but are not within range of each other. The following figure illustrates a hidden node. Both stations (STA) are within range of the access point (AP) or wireless gateway, but out-of-range of each other, so they EMG1302-R10A User’s Guide...
  • Page 188 AP will fragment the packet into smaller data frames. A large Fragmentation Threshold is recommended for networks not prone to interference while you should set a smaller threshold for busy networks or networks that are prone to interference. EMG1302-R10A User’s Guide...
  • Page 189 Wireless security is vital to your network to protect wireless communication between wireless clients, access points and the wired network. Wireless security methods available on the EMG1302-R10A are data encryption, wireless client authentication, restricting access by device MAC address and hiding the EMG1302-R10A identity.
  • Page 190 Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) WPA2 Most Secure Note: You must enable the same wireless security settings on the EMG1302-R10A and on all wireless clients that you want to associate with it. IEEE In June 2001, the IEEE standard was designed to extend the features of IEEE 802.11 to support extended authentication as well as providing additional accounting and control features.
  • Page 191 CA issues certificates and guarantees the identity of each certificate owner. EAP-MD5 (Message-Digest Algorithm 5) MD5 authentication is the simplest one-way authentication method. The authentication server sends a challenge to the wireless client. The wireless client ‘proves’ that it knows the password by EMG1302-R10A User’s Guide...

They both include a per-packet key mixing function, a Message Integrity Check (MIC) named Michael, an extended initialization vector (IV) with sequencing rules, and a re-keying mechanism.

  • Page 195 The AP checks each wireless client's password and allows it to join the network only if the password matches. The AP and wireless clients generate a common PMK (Pairwise Master Key). The key itself is not sent over the network, but is derived from the PSK and the SSID. EMG1302-R10A User’s Guide...
