Chapter 2 — Configuring the CN2G
CN2G Handheld Computer User’s Manual 33
The Intermec Application Server translates UDP Plus packets on
the wireless network into TCP/IP packets on the wired network
and vice versa. The access point acts as a bridge to allow
communications between the wired network and the wireless
network.
To use wireless communications in a UDP Plus network
1 Configure these network parameters on each CN2G in the
network:
• Network name (SSID)
• Controller IP address
• IP settings (if not using DHCP)
• Controller port (set to 5555)
2 Configure the security. For help, see the next section,
“Configuring Security.”
The easiest way to configure the network parameters on the
CN2G is to use Intermec Settings. For help, see “Configuring
the CN2G Locally With Intermec Settings” on page 24.
Configuring Security
The CN2G provides three types of security for your wireless
network:
• Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
• 802.1x
• WEP
This section explains how to configure security on your wireless
CN2G. If you choose not to use security, see “Disabling
Security” on page 50. Intermec always recommends that you
implement security.
You must use either Microsoft or Funk security software to
implement your security solution. For details, see the next
section, “Choosing Between Microsoft and Funk Security.”
