Page 88 To demonstrate the use of the dynamic routing feature, consider the figure as shown below. As shown in the figure, you have a network with two LAN connections (192.168.1.x and 172.168.1.x), and each has a router and a subnet. How can host A in subnet 1 (193.168.1.x) talk to host B in subnet 2 (173.168.1.x)? You have two options: Using the static routing feature, you can add both subnets to the routing table using the Static Routing page.
Page 89 Static Routing: Choose a Connection: Presents list of saved Connections. Select appropriate connection from the list. The New Destination IP: The network IP address of the subnet. (You can also enter the IP address of each individual station in the subnet). Mask: The Subnet Mask identifies which portion of an IP address is the network portion, and which portion is the host portion.

Page 207: Wireless - Security - Wep
4.6.3.2 Wireless – Security – WEP WEP: Wired Equivalent Privacy. WEP is a security protocol for wireless local area networks defined in the 802.11b standard. WEP is designed to provide the same level of security as that of a wired LAN. WEP aims to provide security by encrypting data over radio waves so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one end point to another.
Page 208 Authentication Type: Authentication algorithm to use when the security configuration is set to Legacy. When the security configuration is set to 802.1x or WPA, the authentication algorithm is always open. This field is enabled when the WEP security field is checked. There are three options: Open: In open-system authentication, the access point accepts any station without verifying its identify.

Page 210: Wireless - Security - 802.1X
4.6.3.3 Wireless – Security – 802.1x 802.1x is a security protocol for Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). It is a port-based network access control that keeps the network port disconnected until authentication is completed. 802.1x is based on Extensible Authentication protocol (EAP). EAP messages from the authenticator to the authentication server typically use the RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) protocol.
Page 211: Wireless - Security - Wpa
4.6.3.4 Wireless – Security – WPA WPA is a security protocol for WLAN. WPA uses a sophisticated key hierarchy that generates new encryption keys each time a mobile device establishes itself with an AP. Protocols including 802.1X, EAP, and RADIUS are used for strong authentication. Like WEP, keys can still be entered manually (pre-shared keys);...
