The access point also supports IEEE 802.1x for secure and centralized user-based authentication.
Wireless clients are thus required to authenticate through highly secure methods like EAP-TLS,
EAP-TTLS, and EAP-PEAP, in order to obtain access to the network.
uConfig Utility
The exclusive uConfig utility allows users to access the user-friendlyWeb configuration interface of
the access point without having to change the TCP/IP setup of the workstation.
HTTPS
The access point supports HTTPS (SSL) in addition to the standard HTTP. HTTPS (SSL) features
additional authentication and encryption for secure communication.
Telnet
Telnet allows a computer to remotely connect to the access point CLI (Command Line Interface)
for control and monitoring.
SSH
SSH (Secure Shell Host) establishes a secure host connection to the access point CLI for control
and monitoring.
1.3 Operation Modes and Connection Examples
1.3.1 Access Point and Access Point WDS Mode
The Access Point Mode is the default mode of the device. It enables the bridging of wireless clients to
wired network infrastructure and enables transparent access and communication with each other. The
illustration belowshows a typical resources sharing application example using this device. The wireless
users are able to access the file server connected to the switch, through the access point in Access
Point Mode.
1.3.2 Access Point WDS Mode
This ismode is generally use for point-to-point or point-to-multi-point connection.
It is mainly use with StationWDS to build the point and multi-point connections.
1.3.3 Station Mode
In
Station
mode the device acts as a wireless client.When connected to an access point, it creates a
network link between the Ethernet network connected at this client device, and the wireless Ethernet
network connected at the access point.
In this example the workgroup PCs on the ethernet network connected to the Station device can access
the printer across the wireless connection to the access point where the printer is connected.
