Configuring for Security
5-26
Using the RoamAbout R2 Console Port
To configure encryption using the RoamAbout R2 console port, perform the following:
1. Choose Wireless Configuration from the Main Menu.
2. Choose Encryption Configuration.
Radio Slot: 1 or 2
Encryption State: Enable
Keys: Enter up to 4 encryption keys.
Transmit Key ID: Select the Key number that you want the RoamAbout R2 to use
when transmitting data.
Exclude Unencrypted:
— Enable to accept only encrypted data from clients. Only clients that have the
correct encryption keys can participate in this network.
— Disable to accept encrypted data from clients with encryption enabled, and
unencrypted data from clients without encryption enabled. This allows clients
who require security to use encryption without preventing other clients from using
the network.
Transmit Key ID: Select the Key number that you want the RoamAbout R2 to use
when transmitting data.
Reset Option: Set to Reset Radio if necessary (default setting).
3. Choose Save.
4. Choose Reset/Upgrade from the Main Menu, then choose Reset Switch. You do not
need to reset the AP if you only add, delete, or modify keys, or change the transmit key.
Allow approximately one minute for the AP to reset and complete its self-test.
