    ONFIGURING THE ARRICADE Channel and SSID Parameter ESSID Transmission Rate Basic Rate Channel 4-26 Description Extended Service Set ID. The ESSID must be the same on the Barricade and all of your wireless clients. The default is Fully Automatic. The transmission rate is automatically adjusted based on the receiving data error rate.

  • Page 55: Encryption

    IRELESS Encryption If you are transmitting sensitive data across wireless channels, you should enable encryption. You must use the same set of encryption keys for the Barricade and all of the wireless clients. Choose between standard 64-bit WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) or the more robust 128-bit encryption. You may automatically generate encryption keys or manually enter the keys.
  • Page 56 ONFIGURING THE ARRICADE To manually configure the keys, enter five hexadecimal pairs of digits for each 64-bit key, or enter 13 pairs for the single 128-bit key. (A hexadecimal digit is a number or letter in the range 0-9 or A-F.) If you use encryption, configure the same keys used for the Barricade on each of your wireless clients.
