Configure the AP Settings
The available Access Point (AP) settings for the Integrated Wi-Fi Access Point functionality
are as follows:
1. Keep AP
a. Enable: This option keeps the Wi-Fi Access Point always on, even if there is no
connection to the Wi-Fi Internet Service Provider.
b. Disable: This option disables the Integrated Wi-Fi Access Point functionality.
2. Broadcast SSID
a. Enable: With this option enabled, the configured SSID will be broadcast so that it can
be detected by an SSID scan.
b. Disable: The configured SSID will not be broadcast so that it cannot be detected by
an SSID scan. To connect with the access point, the SSID needs to be known by the
client.
3. Client Isolation
a. Enable: This prevents wireless clients connected to the AP from communicate with
each other.
b. Disable: This allows wireless clients connected to the AP to communicating with
each other.
4. Configure Manually
This option requires manual configuration of the SSID, Authentication, and Encryption
Key values corresponding to the Access Point.
a. SSID: In manual configuration mode, the SSID is manually entered.
b. Authentication: It can be one of three configurable values:
• Open: No Encryption Key is necessary.
• Static WEP Key: A 64- or 128-bit Encryption Key is required, and can be entered
in either an ASCII or HEX representation.
