Wireless - Secure Computing SG300 User Manual

Wireless

Note
SG565 only.
The SG unit's wireless interface may be configured as a wireless access point, accepting
connections from 802.11b (11 Mbit/s) or 802.11g (54 Mbit/s) capable wireless clients.
Typically, the SG unit's wireless interface is configured in one of two ways; with strong
wireless security (WPA) to bridge wireless clients directly onto your LAN, or with weak
wireless security as a Guest connection. The latter requires wireless clients to establish
a VPN tunnel on top of the wireless connection to access the LAN, DMZ and Internet, to
compensate for the security vulnerabilities WEP poses.
Configuring a wireless connection
Select Direct Connection from the Change Type pull down box of the wireless network
interface. Enter appropriate IP address information for the wireless network, and from
the Firewall Class pull down menu, select whether your wireless network is a Guest,
DMZ, LAN or Internet connection.
