point. Clients can associate with the access point only after authentication has
completed.
• Encryption – Indicates if encryption is being used by the client; either Enabled or
Disabled.
• Cipher – Indicates the encryption cipher capability being advertised by the client;
WEP, TKIP, AES, or None.
• SSID -- The VAP interface that the client is associated with.
• RSSI -- The received signal strength of the client. The greater the RSSI value, the
stronger the wireless signal from the client.
Network
The network information page displays the current Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) client, DHCP server, and Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet
(PPPoE) status. The displayed settings are for status information only and are not
configurable on this page.
The displayed items on this page can be described as follows:
• DHCP Client Setting – Enables the access point to automatically obtain an IP
address from a DHCP server. When disabled, or if a response is not received from
the DHCP server, the access point uses the configured static IP settings on the
Network > DHCP Client page. (Default: Enabled)
• DHCP Server/NAT Setting – Enables or disables the DHCP server on the access
point. The access point DHCP server can assign IP addresses to any wireless
client requesting the service. Addresses are assigned to clients from a common
address pool configured on the Network > DHCP Server/NAT page.
(Default: Enabled)
• PPPoE Setting – Enables a connection to an Internet service provider using
PPPoE. The PPPoE access user name and password can be set on the
Network > PPPoE page. (Default: Disabled)
