Field

Description

Network Type

Selecting Closed prevents the network name from appearing in a
wireless client’s "Available Wireless Networks" list. Only clients who
already know the network name will be able to connect. Closed
disables the SSID broadcast in beacon packets.

Selecting Open allows broadcasting to the SSID in beacon packets.

Country

Restricts the channel set based on the country's regulatory
requirements. This is a display-only field.

Channel

Selects the channel for access point (AP) operation. The list of
available channels depends on the designated country. For this field,
the channel selected on the wireless clients on your WLAN must be
the same as the one selected on the SVG2500.

Interface

Allows the access point to be Enabled or Disabled.

Create SES
Network

This action button generates a new SecureEasySetup network,
applies the configuration to the wireless interface, and stores the
settings to non-volatile memory. It enables WPA-PSK authentication
and generates a unique Network Name (SSID) and random,
16-character Pre-Shared Key (PSK). The pop-up window shown
informs the user a SecureEasySetup network has been successfully
created.

Open SES Window

This action button opens a 2-minute security window that allows a
SecureEasySetup client to connect. Only 1 SecureEasySetup client
may connect during an Open Window period. If you have more than
1 client to connect to your SecureEasySetup, you must open the
window multiple times. When the SecureEasySetup window is
open, the pop-up window below indicates the CMRG is waiting for a
SecureEasySetup client.
