WLAN Security Settings

The IE-WL-BL-AP-CL provides four standardized wireless security modes: Open, WEP (Wired Equivalent
Privacy), WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access), and WPA2. Several security modes are available in the
IE-WL-BL-AP-CL by selecting Security mode and WPA type:
• Open: No authentication, no data encryption.
• WEP: Static WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) keys must be configured manually.
• WPA/WPA2-Personal: Also known as WPA/WPA2-PSK. You will need to specify the Pre-Shared Key in the
Passphrase field, which will be used by the TKIP or AES engine as a master key to generate keys that
actually encrypt outgoing packets and decrypt incoming packets.
• WPA/WPA2-Enterprise: Also called WPA/WPA2-EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol). In addition to
device-based authentication, WPA/WPA2-Enterprise enables user-based authentication via IEEE 802.1X.
The IE-WL-BL-AP-CL can support three EAP methods: EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, and EAP-PEAP.
Description
operate at a slower speed when 802.11b clients are on the
network
Supports IEEE 802.11g/n standards, but 802.11n might
operate at a slower speed when 802.11g clients are on the
network
Supports IEEE 802.11b/g/n standards, but 802.11g/n might
operate at a slower speed when 802.11b clients are on the
network
Only supports the 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.11n standard
Only supports the IEEE 802.11a standard
Supports IEEE 802.11a/n standards, but 802.11n might
operate at a slower speed when 802.11a clients are on the
network
Only supports the 5 GHz IEEE 802.11n standard
Description
This option is only adjustable when the IE-WL-BL-AP-CL plays
the role of wireless AP. If the device acts as a wireless client, it
follows the channel of the associated access point
Description
Select your channel width. If you are not sure which option to
use, select 20/ 40 MHz (Auto)
Description
The SSID of a client and the SSID of the AP must be identical for
the client and AP to be able to communicate with each other.
Description
SSID can be broadcast or not
