Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P

Full Routing on Both the Broadband and Serial Ports

You can install, configure, and operate the FWG114P to take full advantage of a variety of routing
options on both the serial and broadband WAN ports, including:
Internet access via either the serial or broadband port.
Auto fail-over connectivity through an analog or ISDN modem connected to the serial port.
If the broadband Internet connection fails, after a waiting for an amount of time you specify,
the FWG114P can automatically establish a backup ISDN or dial-up Internet connection via
the serial port on the firewall.
Remote Access Server (RAS) allows you to log in remotely through the serial port to access a
server on your LAN, other LAN resources, or the Internet based on a user name and password
you define.
LAN-to-LAN access between two FWG114P wireless firewall/print servers through the serial
port with the option of enabling auto-failover Internet access across the serial LAN-to-LAN
connection.

802.11g and 802.11b Wireless Networking

The FWG114P Wireless Firewall/Print Server includes an 802.11g-compliant wireless access
point. The access point provides:
802.11b standards-based wireless networking at up to 11 Mbps.
802.11g wireless networking at up to 54 Mbps, which conforms to the 802.11g standard.
WPA enterprise class strong security with RADIUS and certificate authentication as well as

all of the strong security of WPA.

WEP keys can be generated manually or by passphrase.
Wireless access can be restricted by MAC Address.
