Wi-Fi Mini-Physical Interface Module Overview

The Wi-Fi Mini-Physical Interface Module (Mini-PIM) for branch SRX Series Services Gateways provides a branch-in-a-box

solution (which includes an SRX Series device, LTE, and wi-fi) for retail and small office deployments. The Mini-PIM has

an embedded enterprise-class wireless system-on-chip (SOC) that supports the 802.11ac Wave 2 wireless standards. The

Mini-PIM is backward-compatible with 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n.

The Mini-PIM supports the following key features:

2x2 MU-MIMO—Enables transmission of data to multiple clients simultaneously.

Dual radios—Provides concurrent dual bands of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The radios operate in any one of the supported

radio modes. You can configure each radio to support connectivity from one type of client or different types of clients.

Virtual access points (VAPs)—Allows you to segment the WLAN into multiple broadcast domains that are the wireless

equivalent of Ethernet VLANs. A single access point is segregated into multiple individual VAPs, simulating multiple

access points in a single system.

By default, the Mini-PIM assigns 100 percent power to each radio at startup to provide maximum coverage. Wireless security for client authentication—The Mini-PIM supports the following authentication methods: Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) Personal, which includes AES-CCMP with preshared key authentication.

Page 9 Dynamic Frequency Selection Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) enables use of 5 GHz frequencies that are typically reserved for radars. In countries where DFS is required, the Wi-Fi card performs appropriate checks for radar. If radar is detected on a channel, the access point selects a radar-free channel and performs a 60-second availability check before operating on that channel.

Page 23 Wi-FI Mini-PIM Configuration Overview Before you configure the Mini-PIM, configure the network settings on the SRX Series device and connect the device to your network. For details, see the Hardware Guide for your SRX Series device. Configure the following settings for the access point: Name for the access point Interface—The interface name for the AP is denoted as wl-x/0/0, where x is the slot on the services gateway in which the Mini-PIM is installed.
Page 24 To increase the network capacity, place access points closer together and reduce the value of the transmit power. This helps reduce overlap and interference among access points. A lower transmit power setting can also keep your network more secure because weaker wireless signals are less likely to propagate outside the physical location of your network. Virtual Access Point Configuration Overview Virtual access points (VAPs) allow different security mechanisms for different clients on the same access point.
Page 25 NOTE: If you do not set the country code for the SRX-MP-WLAN-WW models, the Mini-PIM considers the country code as US. You cannot set the country code for the SRX-MP-WLAN-US and SRX-MP-WLAN-IL models. c. Set the location: user@host# set wlan access-point name location location d.
Page 26 NOTE: Changing the radio settings can cause the access point to stop and restart system processes. If this occurs, wireless clients that are connected to the access point will temporarily lose connectivity. We recommend that you change radio settings when WLAN traffic is low. a.
