Page 92
SSID of “ANY” can read the SSID from the beacon, and automatically set their SSID for immediate connection to the OD200. When enabled, the unit does not include its SSID in beacon messages. This provides a basic level of security, since wireless clients must be configured with the SSID to connect to the OD200.
Wireless Security The OD200’s Wi-Fi interface is configured by default as an “open system,” which broadcasts a beacon signal including the configured SSID. Wireless clients with a configured SSID of “ANY” can read the SSID from the beacon, and automatically set their SSID to allow immediate connection to the wireless network.
The option “Open System” together with encryption disabled is equivalent to no security, all clients will be able to immediately connect to the Wi-Fi network. The following sections describe the security options available for the OD200 Wi-Fi network. WEP Shared Key Security...
Wireless Security WPA/WPA2 Security The WPA and WPA2 modes use IEEE 802.1X as their basic framework for user authentication and dynamic key management. IEEE 802.1X access security uses Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) and requires a configured Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) authentication server to be accessible in the enterprise network.
Wi-Fi Settings Note: This guide assumes that you have already configured a RADIUS server in the attached wired network to support the unit. Configuration of RADIUS server software is beyond the scope of this guide, refer to documentation provided with the RADIUS server software.
Wireless clients can be authenticated for network access by checking their MAC address against a local database configured on the OD200. You can configure a list of up to 32 wireless client MAC addresses in the filter list to either allow or deny network access.
