Access Control - Solectek Skyway 7000 Series User Manual

6. Encryption
To manage a unit's security settings, click on Configuration -> Security from
the Navigation Toolbar to display the following screen.
Three data encryption options are available: none, AES and WEP. Within both
AES and WEP, there are several key length choices.
If encryption is enabled, the key value must be the same for all units within a
wireless network. Key values are entered in hexadecimal format – each digit
can be a number from 0 - 9 or a letter from a - f.
After changes are complete, click on the Submit button. If a mistake is made,
you can restore the previous setting by clicking the Reset button. To make
changes effective, reboot the unit by clicking on Reboot from the Navigation
Toolbar.

7. Access Control

For security purposes, each base and client unit must be programmed with the
MAC address of its remote unit.
To access the relevant web screen click on the Configuration -> Clients menu
option on the Navigation Toolbar.
Client's MAC: This is the hardware RF MAC address of the client unit in
question. This MAC address can be found on the client unit's user interface or
on the back label. The correct address must be used to establish an RF link with
the base.
Client's Description: Type in any description that will easily identify the peer
with the above MAC address. This is an optional field for your convenience only
and has no effect on the operation of the unit.
Click Add after typing in MAC address and Description. Now the client unit is in
the Base's access list and is shown on the bottom half of the screen as shown
above.
The base station also needs to have this client unit's RF MAC address in its
access list for RF link to be established.
