6.4.2 How to Configure the Host for 802.11 Wireless

To set up the host to communicate with the device via 802.11 wireless, follow these steps:
1) Talk to your reseller or MagTek Support Services to request a .p12 file containing certificate chains
and a private key to install on the host, and a password to decrypt the .p12 file.
2) Install the .p12 file in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities portion of the host operating
system's certificate store. The steps are operating system specific, and instructions are widely
available (for example, here).
3) If the .p12 file's contents are not properly installed in the host's certificate store, the host software
will fail to connect to the device using TLS on the 802.11 wireless connection. After importing the
.p12 file, verify the following:
a) Check the list of installed certificates to make absolutely sure certificates
PCI3xDev-SubCA
b) Check that the private key was imported successfully by attempting to export the
certificate. If the key was installed correctly, the export utility will ask if the private
Host TLS
key should also be exported. If no key exists, the utility will not show the export key prompt.
4) Check the host operating system's network configuration (for example, using regedit in Windows) to
make sure cipher suites are enabled per the guidance in section 3.2 Network Planning.
5) If the solution is using DNS names, configure the host operating system to register the desired DNS
name. The steps are operating system specific.
6) If the solution is setting the device's Network Connection Mode to Device Initiated:
a) Determine the host's IP address or DNS name for use in section 6.4.4 How to Configure the
Device for 802.11 Wireless.
b) Make sure the host's firewall is configured to allow incoming requests from the device on the
port specified in the solution design.
7) Make sure the host's firewall is configured to allow bidirectional direct socket communication using
TCP on the configured port. See Table 3-2 - Protocols and Ports. If the firewall restricts traffic by
IP address, determine the device's IP address and configure the firewall accordingly.
8) Install the point of sale / transaction processing host software.
11) Configure the host software to communicate with DynaPro Go using the appropriate IP address /
DNS name and port.
