You could also use the Generate button to generate a
password. Some WLAN configuration software does not
convert text into hexadecimal values as a standard procedure.
If this is the case, go to the Hex Value setting and select the
Generate button.
Leave the Cipher Length setting at 256 Bit and the
Distribution Interval setting at 120 seconds. You will not
usually need the settings for WME or for configuring Multiple
SSIDs for standard operation.
Tip: If you are running an Internet-Cafe without using powerful
encryption, you should, for the sake of your customers' security,
prevent them from being able to access each others' computers.
Activate the BSS Isolation option. You can also stop unpleasant
guests from using the system with a MAC Address Filter – but
this will not hold up users who know about this function for long.
Configuring for a Remote Location
If you are using a DECT over IP base station in the same LAN as
the Forum 523/524, the IP address configuration and software
loading procedure which are run when a DECT over IP base sta-
tion is started are handled by the Forum 523/524 using the DHCP
and TFTP protocols.
For the DHCP function to be available, the DECT over IP base sta-
tion must be able to reach the Forum 523/524 via a "Broadcast".
In the case of a remote location this kind of access - via a VPN
connection for example - will not be possible. As in the case of an
IP system telephone, you will have to acquire the necessary sys-
tem software for the DECT over IP base station with the help of a
TFTP server.
Local IP Address Configuration
The IP address configuration can be set up as a "local configura-
tion" with the help of an additional programme.
1. Call up Windows explorer. Browse to the communications
system's product CD. In the "Forum" directory, double-click
the "OM_Configurator.jar" file.
